I will as soon as my citizenship is through. Already having the young FDP meetings in my pub.

Don’t forget UKIP having to repay EU money and our UKIP MEP with her fingers in the till.

No one gets prosecuted for legal loopholes. Who in the EU called it fraud? And what transaction broke the law?

He found a legal loophole which is bad. He was voted in by the European council by 26 to 2. we had the same say as everyone else. Or do you think our vote is worth 26 of everyone else’s?

Parliamentary immunity?

I keep asking what Juncker has done which is illegal and if there is proof enough to prosecute. Fallon has admitted he did something wrong and resigned. Juncker says he has done nothing illegal. So from his point of view what should he resign. I doubt whether Fallon resigned just about touching...

The EU should be dealing with countries undercutting each other. It should not be held up on important matters by tiny countries using their veto. The Council duplicates the work of the Commission in some main areas. It would be sensible to merge them. This has to be cleared up. Juncker has...

I am not fixated on WWII. Farage brought up the film Dunkirk and I was called scum for mentioning the fact. The EU arose out of that as cooperation between powers who had fought each other. That is the connection with this thread. Apropos Farage and nationalism. Did you see he upset the Jewish...

I have read it. You obviously not. It said clearly that Juncker‘s vision is not reality. As regards an EU army, the article says what I said. Defence union - pooling resources. It also confirmed ‚qualified majority‘ voting on important issues- which I explained to you. It didn’t mention taking...

What is the conclusion having looked into it?

What lies? There is not one person/ pilot. There are 5 presidents of different chambers or organs. We haven’t got an EU finance minister yet. Greece was virtually bankrupt. Does sending tax payers money without Greece cutting outgoings seem like a fair deal? A defence union. That could mean...

If people don’t like them, they won’t be passed. If we had had an EU finance minister when, say, Juncker was negotiating with Amazon to come to Luxemburg, then Luxemburg couldn’t have offered Amazon a better deal. If Juncker has done something illegal, then he will be forced to go. At the moment...

I don’t know the full facts and I don’t think you do, so I have suggested you ask someone who may know more than both of us. Sometimes what we see as wrong is not necessarily illegal.

The banking union and an EU Finance Minister are aimed at preventing things like the Greece collapse. The transfer payments to poorer countries would help Greece. Having at least 65% of the EU population represented in finance or foreign policy decisions means that countries like Germany cannot...

I told you what to do, but if he won’t be standing again then maybe your question will be answered. You should be happy, I don’t know what your problem is.

Oh, and here is the answer to your question about why is Juncker still there if he has created a tax dodging loop hole or dodged tax: „The Parliament and you If you want to ask the Parliament to act on a certain issue, you can petition it (either by post or online). Petitions can cover any...

Just read what he said. He wants a chamber where a qualified majority would be necessary in finance and foreign affairs questions instead of countries being able to use a veto. That would mean a 55% majority of countries representing 65% of the EU population. Note: avoids close votes causing...

They haven’t said it shouldn’t be discussed though. I also pointed out that the FDP, a necessary partner if Merkel or her party wants to continue, has expressed doubts about the power of a potential EU finance minister. I would want more power to the parliament as a counter balance to a merged...

He won’t be there after 2019. He wants one less president. It won’t happen without unanimous agreement. The only way to get that would be by giving more power to the parliament as a check on a merged Council and Commission. In your article it confirms that he wants an EU finance minister- as I...

If you read it, he says he won’t be standing in 2019. he won’t get approval for merging the Council and the Commission without a compromise or check. To do away with the veto system, he would have to give more power to the parliament as a check.
