Alain Lamassoure, a senior centre-right French MEP, has suggested that the EU levy a tax on SMS and email messages in a debate on the union’s future financing.

Alain Lamassoure should be looking at the ridiculous costs of SMS to his constituents and doing something about that; not suggesting a tax on the medium.
