Is that the best you 2 can do?
Once all countries give away their right to decide it might as well be one country.
It will be soon if Schulz gets his way.
One federal state. Schultz said the EU should not be involved in local or national issues. A bit like Washington. The countries keep local and national rights. The European relevant things get dealt with by MEPs - ELECTED - by the citizens of Europe.
There is a massive difference between a federal government that rules one country and a federal government that rules 27 countries.
That sounds just like a dictatorship to me!!
Is this really what all of this is based upon?!! Hahahaha!!
I said turning into a dictatorship. And this goes to show that I could well be 100% right after taking abuse off you and others for saying so. That must be why some of you are having a priblem admitting what is going on.
Martin Schulz wants 'United States of Europe' within eight yearsOne federal state. Schultz said the EU should not be involved in local or national issues. A bit like Washington. The countries keep local and national rights. The European relevant things get dealt with by MEPs - ELECTED - by the citizens of Europe.
At last you have got his name right.Schulz isn’t even in the EU or governing Germany and CDU has other priorities. But, the Express is having a hay day, so a EU dictatorship with an EU army will be happening any day soon. Luckily the plucky Brits saw this coming a long while ago.... #thank god we’re leaving. Saved by Johnson, Gove, Davis and co..
Ah so it is true now?
Ah so it is true now?
Mart tries to say it is what Merkel wants but she doesn't have the time.
At last you have got his name right.
Would you like to tell everyone who Schulz is?
He was head of the EU parliament until he left it earlier this year to go into politics in his own country...Germany. I wonder why he did so.
The Express? Are you ignoring the rest of the news outlets?

Can someone explain to me how Schultz, who isn't even in power in his own country, can dictate to the whole of Europe and rewrite the rules to suit himself?

Because he’s German and you can see Martcov is literally drooling at the prospect
Making a deal with the intent of breaking it is one thing, if you are a wanker, but bragging about it to the party and media is really stupid. Won’t help our negotiating at all.

How about the last paragraph?
Mr Schulz helped inflict a serious defeat in 2014 on Ms Merkel, when he and Jean-Claude Juncker, former Luxembourg prime minister, secured public backing to share two top EU posts, with Mr Juncker becoming European Commission president and Mr Schulz heading the parliament. Ms Merkel wanted member states to control the appointments and to block Mr Juncker’s ascent.
And how similar is he to Juncker with them holding two of the top 5 jobs in the EU?

Just like it seems to have gone away for Juncker. Isn't it strange how they had 2 of the top 5 jobs in the EU.The scandals seemed to have died away and Schulz was welcomed as the messiah by the SPD. Would like to know what happened there. Some of his scandals like getting people jobs and gravy training it apply to many others. Not a justification, but that certainly needs to be sorted out.
But, he did also criticise the European Council and wanted it to be more open. Thus his second chamber idea. Which would be an improvement.
Whilst he is obviously not a decent guy, his vision is something to look into.
But it has no chance in the near future and can’t happen without widespread support throughout Europe. The Bild poll was 30% in Germany in favour.
The people didn't vote for him. So why is that?The scandals seemed to have died away and Schulz was welcomed as the messiah by the SPD. Would like to know what happened there.

Seem to be very close. But what happened to the plan to keep Schulz in the EU?
Also, Merkel is the good guy in the Spiegel story. Which dashes one conspiracy theory of yours.
The people didn't vote for him. So why is that?
He has his party behind him. And as we all have agreed most MP's will do anything for power.
He left his high position in the EU to do what he needs back in Germany. Juncker and Schulz have been close for many years. I suppose he can always go back to the EU when he has got what they want.
8 years max to change how the EU is run? With the speed this has taken off I expect it to speed along once we are gone.
And just like with Brexit we don't know if it will be good or bad overall. But there will be good and bad in both.
I have never said Merkel is bad. Or would you like to point it out?
That's all great but doesn't answer the question. How can he dictate to the whole of Europe and rewrite the rules to suit himself.So you don't know who Schulz is?

Look at the position he left to go back to politics in Germany. Juncker and himself have helped each other out. They held two out of the top 5 jobs in the EU. He wants what Juncker wants. They are not alone in wanting it.That's all great but doesn't answer the question. How can he dictate to the whole of Europe and rewrite the rules to suit himself.
