Story: BSA figures do not add up
Posted by: Arthur B. (Saturday 25 June 2005, 12:30 AM)
It is a little known fact that EU politicians can get sponsored every word and every opinion they voice within the EU democracy by means of corporate sponsored opinion makers. Thus effectively influancing every word that makes it to the negotiation table. And this is more practise then exception. So who's in who's pocket?
The BSA is just one player in this game. Just an obviously sponsored and coached one who for that very same reason shouldn't have been taken at face value by EU politicians to begin with.
So I put this to you. When and how will EU politicians be required to explain their behaviour of (hopefully) the past and made to life up to their responsibilities or otherwise be ask to leave in shame?
Or should we begin to ask the question (someone has to start with this): is the EU more about democracy (for the people, by the people) or dictatorship (do as you're told by us, the big players)?
