So a socialist, corporatist guilty of fraud and a fascist imprisoner of elected Catalan politicians is thought to be just the man for the European Union’s Foreign Policy chief. From the continuing massive fraud in the EU budget to the EU nominations for the highest posts of crooks, frauds, globalist anti democrats and suppressors of dissent the disintegrating European Union has never shown itself so miserably corrupt.
INCOMPETENCE AND CORRUPTION – EU LEADERSHIP NOMINEES
In a Politics Live interview the host Andrew Neil tore into the nominations for the the 4 leading posts in the European Union, exposing their incompetence and corruption. Even the avowedly eurofanatical Independent newspaper had to admit that:
“the EU’s opaque leadership nominations diminish its democratic credentials”.
But the long standing and well documented democratic “deficit” is nothing compared to the past corruption and political failures of the 4 European politicians now nominated to assume the leading posts in the EU:
For EU Commission President
A failed German defence minister, Ursula von der Leyen, the second most unpopular German politician in a Der Spiegel poll, whose Defence Department is under investigation for corrupt defence contracts. 60% of their planes can’t fly, 100% of their submarines can’t take to sea and in a NATO exercise German soldiers had broomsticks for guns.
The German Higher Education Commission conducted an investigation into von der Leyen’s Doctoral Dissertation and found “only” three “serious errors”, and lesser errors in 20% of the work. But as the VroniPlag Wiki shows, 43.5% of the thesis pages contained plagiarism, and in 23 cases sources were cited that did not contain the claimed content. Needless to say the independence of the investigating commission was questionable as von der Leyen personally knew its director from joint work for an alumni association.
For Foreign Policy Chief:
Josep Borrell, a Spanish socialist politician, who has been cheerleader for repression in Catalonia, calling it a “war” in which 9 Catalan leaders have been jailed pending trial for rebellion! His socialism did not prevent him from becoming a classic corporatist and joining the board of a company called Abengoa, a multinational conglomerate in energy, transportation and telecoms. Borell sold shares shortly before a bankruptcy announcement and was fined $34,000 for insider trading.
So a socialist, corporatist capitalist guilty of fraud and a fascist imprisoner of elected Catalan politicians is thought to be just the man for the European Union’s Foreign Policy chief.
For President of the European Council:
Charles Michel a failed Belgian Prime Minister. He resigned because his policy of supporting the Global Compact for Migration (a classic behind the peoples’ backs globalist “free movement of people” law made by supranational powers) could not be passed. Michel’s coalition government failed as a result. Never mind – he is now rewarded with a top EU job.
For ECB Head
The former French finance minister Christine Lagarde, found guilty of negligence in a Euro 400m French scandal, who had the full hearted support of the disastrous Chancellor George Osborne for her role as Head of the IMF and whose predictions that the UK economy would collapse proved wildly wrong.
But if these nominees have had corrupt pasts the best place for them is the European Union where they can bask in immunity from the consequences of their actions. As Lee Rotherham notes:
Nils Usakovs mayor of Riga whose party is accused of corruption, is left with only two options for his political career – either to stay in Riga and be imprisoned for his part in various corruption schemes, or run off to the Brussels and hide behind the immunity that is given to EU’s Members of Parliament. It is clear that Riga’s former mayor has chosen wisely and is most likely packing his bags for Brussels at this very moment.
THE EU FLAG IS A GERMAN FLAG
And just in case you are a German who thinks this stench of corruption and failure is too much for you and you protest by burning the EU flag, German lawmakers are proposing that the penalty for burning the flag should be 3 years in prison. https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/06/22/germany-lawmakers-want-three-year-prison-terms-burning-eu-flag/
How well that chimes with the new Foreign Policy nominee Señor Borrell who has imprisoned democratically elected Catalan politicians. The politicisation of the law and its arbitrary application are the cornerstones of fascist societies.
BUDGET FRAUD
It has always been a mystery that the British Government has been able to commit hundreds of billions of pounds to the EU over the past 46 years when report after report by that organisation’s auditors has revealed massive fraud. It shows how the very size and complexity of supranational States like the EU can get away with fraud on a massive scale without repercussion. And why no respectable democratic nation state should be a part of it.
Between 2002 and 2016 the EU lost Euro 8.8bn in fraud according to the European Court of Auditors report of January 2019. Only 2.6bn was recovered and prosecutions of the guilty were low. In 2017 another Euros 391m were lost. The EU auditors admit that “the scale of fraud is under-reported”. And since payments under E10,000 do not have to be logged and most payments to farmers are under that level the scope for unreported fraud is large!
The excellent Dr Lee Rotherham http://www.theredcell.co.uk/people.html reports how:
“A Mafia case involved a $300million plan to divert 20,000 tons of meat heading towards the beef mountain and replace it with offal. It was discovered when some of the cans were sent to Russia as aid. Because of the shipping route, UK Customs was involved in the investigation and handed over the evidence to the Italian authorities. Much of this was then lost in an arson attack on the building where the documents were stored. In the end, prosecutions were few and charges were light.”
Free nations has reported on several occasions on EU corruption and fraud and nowhere more critically than this exposure of the suffering of 4 brave whistleblowers http://freenations.net/four-brave-men-fascist-eu-persecutes-whistleblowers/
That was 6 years ago. Nothing changes.
