One EU parliament seat
It cost approximately 200 millions euros a year to move the Parliament between Brussels and Strasbourg. That's a crazy amount of money thrown out of the window to please a French president who's been buried a long time ago. Objectively the EU parliament should have just one seat. Subjectively I'd say it should be in Brussels since it is already the seat of the Commission and the de facto capital of the EU.
In any case, if you happen to be a EU citizen, click at http://www.oneseat.eu/ and let other EU citizens know about the issue. Those 200 millions per year could be used for better purposes like education, integration, immigration, medicine, reduction of the debt of poor countries or science.
