"Partner Wouter Pors explains what the Unified Patent Court is and how businesses can prepare for its launch," said Bird & Bird 6 years ago (that's around 1:46-1:53 above). There are many more videos just like this one (or just as laughable) and these are always filled with conceited lawyers, equipped with false (also totally baseless) predictions and an arrogant sense of certainty it would actually start, in spite of severe constitutional issues.
"They're basically voting on a dud, having already disgraced the Bundestag when voting in the small hours of the morning with barely anyone present."The "UPC [Agreement] enters the Bundestag [today]," Benjamin Henrion told us, with "vote by the end of the month with the vote of the Budget, cause they need to be present for 2/3 majority..."
This overlooks so many other issues. They're basically voting on a dud, having already disgraced the Bundestag when voting in the small hours of the morning with barely anyone present. Is the Bundestag so corrupt that even Donald Trump can mock it? Is the ministry of injustice together with the Bundestag capable of doing something which it very well knows to be unconstitutional, as per the FCC?
One final question: don't German officials understand that the longer they participate in Team UPC's lobbying effort, the more long-term damage will be done (to their credibility and the nation's reputation)? ⬆
