Summary: FFPE candidates (or moles from the yellow union [1-16]) failed to enter the Central Staff Committee in spite of Battistelli's attempt to help them get in

WHILE we are waiting for the results of a strike ballot we can say that another ballot had Battistelli astoundingly defeated. It's a humiliating defeat given that Battistelli tried hard to rig the rules.

As a source put it, "EPO staff successfully elected a new staff representation on Tuesday. Battistelli had tried to foster the election of at least one FFPE candidate into the Central Staff Committee by re-designing the election rules. But none of the two FFPE candidates reached the necessary number of votes. This is a defeat for the president and a victory for the staff. To my knowledge, all 10 elected candidates are SUEPO members, but only about half of them are SUEPO Committee members."

"It's a humiliating defeat given that Battistelli tried hard to rig the rules."We knew about these elections and alluded to them earlier this week.

For those who wonder about the meaning of the above cartoon, the original theme stems from May 1968 and showed Charles de Gaulle as a police officer, playing with France, as if it was a ball, but ready to reign it through brutality after elections of the French Parliament. The text means “Feel free to vote. I’ll do the rest.” ⬆
