<sub>Europe Pushed to ‘Suicide’ on Austerity, Stiglitz Says
By Zoe Schneeweiss - Apr 26, 2012 8:00 PM GMT-0300


Slechts kleine romp eurozone blijft over
Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz said Europe is in a “dire” situation as a focus on austerity pushes the continent toward “suicide.”

“There has never been any successful austerity program in any large country,” Stiglitz, 69, told reporters in Vienna yesterday. “The European approach definitely is the least promising. I think Europe is headed to a suicide. ”

Prive jets voor de Eurocraten !

DAILYMAIL - Crisis, what economic crisis? Anger after £10m private jet deal to fly Eurocrat chiefs to engagements



No expense spared: The Falcon 7X private jet deal cost £10m

<sub>EU chiefs were yesterday accused of living the ‘high life’ at taxpayers’ expense after signing a £10million deal for the use of private jets to fly them around the world.

Baroness Ashton, the EU’s foreign policy chief, is among the eurocrats who will enjoy use of the jets for their globetrotting.

From tomorrow, the Labour peer will be able to use a choice of aircraft – including the Falcon 7X jet and Boeing 737 – when she travels abroad for EU business.

Jose Manuel Barroso, president of the European Commission, and Herman van Rompuy, president of the European Council, are among other dignitaries who will benefit from the agreement with Belgian firm Abelag.

The news of the deal – estimated to be worth as much as £10.3million over the next four years – comes after Britain reacted with fury to the EU’s demands to increase its budget by seven per cent.

Verkiezingen in Europa ! Kan de democratie het Euro-project doen ontsporen ?

TELGRAPH - Could democracy derail the euro?
Like a tidal wave, the crisis that has overwhelmed southern Europe smashed into the northern core last week.

<sub>For three years, Merkel and Sarkozy have imposed savage austerity with one overriding justification: to save the euro. As if in wartime, democracy has been sidelined and public opinion ignored under the assumption that the state – or superstate – has a higher cause.

With breathtaking audacity, Brussels installed its own technocrats in Greece and Italy to impose its policies in “sinner states”. Extreme measures were needed to keep the eurozone intact, they said – without ever properly asking if the electorate wanted the prize, let alone had the stomach for the cost of winning it.

The “legitimacy question” has been quieter than the rampaging debt farrago. Yet plenty reckon it poses the real danger to the eurozone – and is most likely to trigger its collapse. Over the next few weeks its pent-up energy will be unleashed in full – via a raft of ballot boxes across Europe.

Last week was just a warm-up. May 6 is a day of reckoning for Europe’s leaders as France votes for a new president, Greece for a new parliament, and Italy goes to the polls for local elections. German state elections follow. On May 31, Ireland is holding a referendum on Europe’s fiscal pact. In June, France has parliamentary elections. Then, on September 12, the Netherlands will go to the polls.

As last weekend has shown, the elections are fast becoming a vote on Europe’s growth and stability pact – the German-led plan to impose binding austerity rules on all eurozone countries. Merkel said the pact was “non-negotiable” and would “last forever”, but any national parliament that was ready to ratify the treaty is being roundly rejected.</sub>

Angered by sniping from her allies the FPD, the Karlsruhe Court, and Bankfurt – and anxious to get a stable hold on power before the German people realise what they’re getting into – Bundeskanzlerin Angela Merkel is working hard behind the scenes to line up an early election…and a “grand coalition” with the Social Democrats immediately thereafter. German newspaper Bild led with a speculative story yesterday morning, but sources in Berlin and Frankfurt say the Chancellor has already formed a crack election planning centre.
