Margot Wallström informs us on her blog that “The Commission launched an internet discussion last Monday 27th on the future of Europe as part of our “Plan D” which of course stands for Dialogue, Debate and Democracy.” The EU commissioner for Communication / propaganda tells us that she wants to “encourage everyone who has a point of view on Europe and the European Union to take part in this debate. This is the chance to have your say about the future.

The results of this discussion will be added to the results of other debates taking place around Europe – in Member States, in town halls and so on. They will be discussed at the European Council in June.

How very thoughtful of the unelected EU Commission to consider the people, but it takes an American commenter to point out the obvious:

I am struck about how you and the EU go on and on about democracy and how great it is, yet each time the EU constitution is struck down, the EU has nothing to try and rewrite but to only keep putting it to a vote over and over again. My own country is starting to become filled with politicians that think like that. In fact our President behaves in such a fashion. If he thinks that he is right, then to hell with what us the people think. That Ms. Wallstrom is not how democracy or even a republic is suppose to work. If you are serious about dialogue, debate, and democracy, then you have to be willing to reevaluate the constitution, the role of the EU etc. in connection with what the people of Europe think on the issue. Now I know I really have no say in EU politics as it should be, but I could not let the hypocrisy of always talking about democracy yet doing the opposite go uncommented.

One comment from the UK was much more succinct:

I don’t want ‘to have my say’ - that is just an excercise in faux-democracy and sham ‘consultation’ - I want you to actually listen to me (and others like me).

The point being that the EU Commision in the absence of real democratic legality or accountability are trying to invent the idea that they have these things simply because they allow us the great unwashed, to write to them, big deal! We can write all we want, but they will just continue to ignore all comments that do not agree with the concept of a United States of Europe. As Greg Lance-Watkins says;

DIALOGUE; Dialogue is not just a matter of talking to a minority who it pays to listen!

DEBATE; The Minister clearly has no understanding of either the word Dialogue or Debate in the English language. It is not a matter of feeding bits of cake to the peasants and then totally ignoring them apart from occasionally sending in paid lakeys to make noises.

DEMOCRACY; from the unelected Commission so redollent of the USSR’s Politburo through to the EU Duma with its Massively Expensive Parasites appointed from Party lists and representing their own interests as salesmen for the entire corrupt scam that keeps them over paid with generous pensions,

Clearly there is not the vaguest understanding of the meaning of the word DEMOCRACY.

The entire corrupt edifice is kept up by greed, self interest, fear and corruption as it destroys so much of value to mankind - Liberty, Freedom, Rights, Justice, Independence, Sovereignty, Self Determination, Self Sufficiency, Initiative, Progress and self respect.
