The end of the EU

L.S.,

This is it, we're all going to hell. The people will revolt, and burn all the eurocrats at the stakes on Grand Place.

"Why now?", you may ask. Well, the European Court of Justice, in full court setting, decided that, yes, mrs. Edith Cresson was guilty of nepotism, but no, it was not necessary to actually punish her, for example by taking away half her pension as proposed by the Commission and the Advocate-General.

This makes sense to no one. Least of all to anyone actually reading the ruling (case: C-432/04), because the Court discusses the penalty in three one-sentence paragraphs, that don't actually explain why this verdict is punishment enough.

It will be 1789 all over again... Flee Brussels while you still can! Now, for once, I'm happy to be in safe, boring, Enschede!
