Bonum Certa Men Certa

The Charade of Fake News and Lobbying (Based on Lies) by Team UPC

Rory O’Neill/UPC seminar: in-house to ramp up plans in next few months:  Funded by litigation companies; Lobbying; Why? To fake process? But UPC neither exists, nor is it legal

Conference & CLE Calendar: UPC lobbying and sales calendar

D Young & Co LLP - Rachel Bateman: UPC preparations - five actions to take now: To help the lobbyists with self-fulfilling prophecies...

Opinion: UPC should look to CJEU on transparency: Max Walters: Legality; Illegal; Compliance with the law; Kangaroo court

D Young & Co LLP - Alice Stuart-Grumbar: UP & UPC - representation and judges: EPO kangaroos; This does not even exist and it's not legal

Bristows LLC: Bristows/Gregory Bacon: Appointment, training and remuneration of UPC judges; No such thing exists. Bristows said the same 5+ years ago!!

Fake advice: D Young & Co LLP - Alice Stuart-Grumbar: UP & UPC - structure, language & where to start a case: No such system even exists! Advice on an illegal and unconstitutional wishlist

Summary: The EPO's replace-courts-with-kangaroo-courts project is based on lies, disinformation (worse than misinformation), fabrication, and glorification of illegal actions, overt violations of constitutions, conventions being ignored, court-rigging, and even habitual perjury (at the expense of the EU's legitimacy), so we continue watching and reporting the prominent culprits

THIS post will be followed by a video. I wish to express my concerns about Team UPC not only lying but also shamelessly pushing illegal agenda under the guise of law firms with legal advice (yes, the irony).

We've noticed a slowdown -- a considerable slowdown in fact -- even though the EPO's Web site has had lots of dininformation plastered onto its front page a little over a week ago (epo.org has become rather farcical). It was around the time António Campinos was having a breakdown; go read all these comments (especially the comments!) because it looks like a turning point has been reached. Benoît Battistelli's boy sees no way forward other than bullying and cursing at those who merely point out facts and tell the truth. That's the last step before declaring defeat.
