EU Summit Will Discuss Establishing European Commission Dictatorship

February 11, 2010 (LPAC)—A European Commission dictatorship will be the main topic of discussion at the Summit of the European Union on Feb. 11. The EU direct rule which has been imposed on Greece will be extended to all countries of the Union. This is outlined in the secret annexes to the letter being sent by European Union President Herman Van Rompuy to European Union heads of government who will be attending the summit.

The British daily, the Independent, has seen these annexes and quotes Van Rompuy: "Members of the European Council are responsible for the economic strategy in their government. They should do the same at EU level. Whether it is called co-ordination of policies or economic government, only the European Council is capable of delivering and sustaining a common European strategy for more growth and more jobs." He continued, stating that "the crisis has revealed our weaknesses," adding: "Budgetary plans, structural reform programs, and climate change reporting should be presented simultaneously to the Commission. This will provide a comprehensive overview." Referring to the fact that the EU has no way to resolve a budgetary crisis that affects other member-states,

Van Rompuy goes on: "Recent developments in the euro area highlight the urgent need to strengthen our economic governance. In our intertwined economies, our reforms must be co-ordinated to maximize their effect.... The crisis has revealed our weaknesses. Our structural growth rate is too low to create new jobs and to sustain our social systems."

The Independent then quotes an EU source who explicitly states that what they have imposed on Greece will be imposed on all: "It has become clear to everyone that this economic crisis can't be solved by individual member-states, such as Germany helping out Greece. What we need is the same kind of mechanism that we have now imposed on Greece in order to monitor and survey Eurozone countries. So the idea is to put all European economies under surveillance. You can expect some important decisions to be taken this week."

The summit will not be held at the EU headquarters at the Solvay Library. "Van Rompuy wanted to create a far more intimate atmosphere without an army of advisors," a source said. "There are a lot of tensions between member-states right now, which is why he decided to get them to talk in an open, friendly setting, starting with aperitifs. The idea is to have a proper brainstorming session and hear everyone's thoughts."

This is presumably where a series of "Solvay Conferences" did so much to destroy European science.
