Púnktar úr grein Stefan Collignon
- No matter who wins in the European elections: the conservative European Commission President Barroso will remain in office
- You have the choice, announced a poster at the European Parliament in Brussels. Think! At the 2009 European elections, we have no choice
- A referendum after another is lost
- Voter turnout is falling and this is probably their historical low point
- The European integration project was based on a promise: peace, prosperity, democracy.
- This promise is losing credibility.
While the peace (yet) been observed but appears to threaten the prosperity.
- No, Europe itself seems to the agent for neoliberal welfare cuts have become
Commission President Barroso is the symbol of this policy.
- He stands for re-nationalization of politics
- From a common macroeconomic control in the euro area, once one of the two main pillars of the Lisbon Strategy, was nothing left
- Democracy thrives on controversy
