OMG twisting it again I see.
So are you saying that if Selmayr went it would show transparency in the EU?
The first report said it was wrong. The EU disagreed. The second report said it was wrong. The EU ignored it again.
Transparency in the EU? The one thing transparent is it is a waste of time having a watchdog in the EU because when it proves they have done wrong even when in law they ignore the findings and carry on as usual. You also forgot to mention the MEP'S vote on if Selmayr should keep the position he shouldn't have got. Only 15 out of 518 MEP's voted for him to keep the position. And 13 of them are affiliated to Selmayr and Juncker. Yet they even ignored the MEP's.
And our only say in the EU is through MEP's. This big say in the EU that you constantly tell us that we have. Now you try to deny the truth.
The first report said it was wrong and then that it possibly even broke the law. That wasn’t binding and was not conclusive that the law had been broken.
The EC objected to the report and I posted Öttinger‘s objections and „scathing criticism“ of the first report.
The parliament voted asking for Selmayr‘s resignation. They cannot Sack an employee of the EC, the same as, say, the ERG cannot sack Robins by voting for his resignation. They can put him in the limelight and under pressure. But they cannot force him to resign.
The second report is conclusive and has found that the law was broken because the „case of urgency“ was contrived.
It is unlikely Selmayr will go without going before a court ( Arbeitsgericht in German). It is also unlikely that he would be fired before the EU elections and Brexit. He has been in Brexit from the start and they would have to appoint Juncker‘s replacement after the EU elections to go properly through the recommendations of the ombudsman.
Yes, that is transparent and following proper procedure.
Now, how was May‘s „loyal lieutenant“ appointed and what procedure is there to assess whether the appointment was correct. All we had for the equivalent position was the excuse of a case of urgency- Brexit - and a bit of moaning from Corbyn.
