Pong in the air is 'Euro-whiff'
The Met Office believes easterly winds could be bringing smells to England

THERE’S something in the air, and it isn’t Spring.
Much of southern England woke yesterday to The Great Pong.
Noses twitched as a wicked whiff wafted across the land.
Weathermen were quick to tell us Europe was to blame. As it often is.
But what was causing the gut-churning stink that drifted our way on the gentle morning breeze?
Perhaps it was the stench of corruption in Brussels
