Spotlight and Downlighter Bulbs Next to be Banned by EU 'Millions more traditional light bulbs are to be banned by the European Union, forcing consumers to buy less popular “green” alternatives instead. Traditional spotlights and some kinds of halogen downlighters used in kitchens and bathrooms are expected to fall foul of the regulations being drawn up by the European Commission.' 67% of Brits Want Vote on EU Membership 'Two thirds of Britons want their chance to vote on our membership of the European Union, a survey shows. The online poll published today reveals 67 per cent want a referendum, including more than half of Labour and Lib Dem voters.
