Bananvasalstaten EU`s korrupte fremfærd

Bananrepublikken EU – budgettet ikke godkendt på 18. år – præget af korruption og uigennemsigtighed

The EU president has sent a shot across the bow of Europe’s official spending watchdog warning it to rein in its criticism of Brussels and focus on promoting the union.
Herman Van Rompuy told Europe’s Court of Auditors that he wants their findings to generate positive headlines with particular regard to Europe’s £110 billion yearly spend.
The watchdog has been a thorn in the side of Brussels, publishing a series of critical reports on wasteful spending and refusing to sign off the EU’s budget for 18 consecutive years because of concerns about fraud.
[...]
Ukip leader Nigel Farage told the Daily Telegraph:
‘The Court of Auditors which has not signed off the EU accounts for 18 years, is asked to go easy and provide good PR only for the EU,’ he said. ‘In which other banana republic in the world would the president publicly call for less exposure of waste of taxpayers’ money?.’

Spydpigens kommentar:

18 år! Det er den tid, det tager at blive myndig og tage ansvar.
Eu's ansvarsløshed har således varet længe nok, og skønt der er skrevet en fyldig bog om dette 1997 - "The rotten heart of Europe" - så synes den danske presse endnu ikke at have set eller læst den, og mig bekendt er den (som lignende vigtig faglitteratur) heller ikke blevet oversat til dansk.

Findes den engelske teksten mon udlagt på internnettet?
