Whats that Undecided

Point taken. Wink

Perhaps a better description is "the better" old days - when there was at least a semblance of democracy around. Sad

Well we got a Belgian for the President .

hardly got any coverage on British TV. Fairly normal. As Nickbat would say Wake Up .

I bet when that job and the other top EU jobs come up for re election(re appointment?) there will be a bit more interest when people realise they aren't just notional jobs.

Kevin

Just think, Britain currently has an unelected PM, Ireland currently has an unelected PM and now we both have an unelected president Shocked

Over here the greens got 2.5% of the vote in the last election yet they're still in power Sad

"How appropriate then that the coming into force of the EU's constitution should bring to power a man who wishes to see the EU funded entirely from taxes designed to save the world from global warming."

Mandelson must be pig sick.He came back from Europe to manipulate British politics to try to ensure Bliar got the EU presidents job,and then he would presumably have gone back to Brussels to assist him in the running of Europe.
It has turned out that Bliar didnt get the job,so Mandy has wasted his time and the woman who replaced him in Brussels has got the number 2 job.So if he had stayed there he would probably have got it instead. Grin

The woman who got the job was treasurer of CND in the 80,s btw,so Im guessing she is slightly left of centre in her leanings. Roll Eyes
