Summary: Benjamin Henrion recorded today's hearing and uploaded it. "Campinos," according to him, claims that (to paraphrase) "London [is] irrelevant to get UPCA running" (that's very obviously a lie), so what we have here is António Campinos lying on behalf of the entire EPO, just as Benoît Battistelli did. Campinos has decided to "have fun," we've been told, speaking of UPCA "upper law" (which is meaningless junk) at around 51:00. He clearly didn't come prepared and he mumbles a lot. What awful leadership for what was supposed to be the best of Europe's science...
