EPO: It is All About Germany, Baby!

Video download link



Summary: The untold or the unsayable truth is, EPO is mostly about Germany, as we've noted over the years (see EPO wiki); the document discussed above shows figures from the EPO itself, confirming that assertion

THE name Europe or EU signifies unity to many who oppose nationalism. Many Eurosceptics love portraying the EU as "German" or "Nazi", even though the EU is nowhere as bad as the EPO. If the UK should quit something, it's not the EU but the EPO.



"They cannot duck accountability for eternity, whether that accountability is public opinion or prosecution."We've recently begun doing a series that will run into late April; see the first and second parts with this internal EPO document [PDF] -- the main document discussed above. Many more documents will be shown later; some are highly incriminating and may be a hassle for Benoît Battistelli (no matter where he hides) and for António Campinos. They cannot duck accountability for eternity, whether that accountability is public opinion or prosecution. Quite a few people connected to Battistelli got arrested recently. Maybe he'll be the next person to join that clique behind bars. Maybe...

As a side note, one EPO insider wrote to tell us about "1st of April EPO style," stating: "please consider the recent publication from SUEPO titled "BIT and the mystery of the spaghetti structure". Who said that the EPO management lacks a sense of humour?"

"Published ahead of the 1st of April, the EPO management acknowledges his complete incompetence in IT matters. They are on a good way! An appreciated next step would be to acknowledge that the HR department is a complete failure, or even that presently the EPO fails to deliver proper (valid) European patents."

Indeed, the EPO is going down the drain because the management is inadequate, to put it generously; in reality, it's exceedingly corrupt and the video above points out that the Office President lacks the experience and qualification needed for the job. Have job requirements been reduced to "cover-up" or "complicity"?

The EPO Bundestagate -- Part 3 will be published tomorrow. We'll publish at least one part per day and discuss various documents that accompany the publications.
