ILO Said Give the Judge His Job Back, But Christoph Ernst's Administrative Council Will Likely Let Him Go (Unemployed)

Maybe the "Nazi" isn't Patrick Corcoran but the career-climbing sociopaths who are out to get him for speaking truth to Power

Christoph Ernst of EPO ACBenoît Battistelli seems to have a German 'stooge' other than Lutz (who allegedly taught him how to escape the law in Munich)

Summary: Another potential EPO scandal in the making, as after waiting for 3 years the illegally-suspended judge might get his job back for only 3 weeks

THE EPO has become so morally void that it's hard to believe it will ever manage to recruit any talent (talent which is also capable enough to research the employer/job offer).



"It would make ILO look like an utter joke."Earlier today, on two occasions when we covered the latest from ILO, we also took note of an ongoing legal case in Germany (legal bullying basically) that's already used as an excuse by the Administrative Council to never end the judge's 'limbo'.

A short while ago we showed some public consensus that Battistelli might not obey the ruling but find a loophole (yet again) to pretend that he obeys it while at the same time spitting at ILO's face. He did it before, so why not again? ILO apparently loves being spat on. It savours the taste of the saliva and even congratulates the EPO for the flavour (right there in the video of the session). It's appalling. It's self-insulting and ILO may not even realise that it is digging its own grave right before it turns 100. If it ever gets there...

"Why did it take ILO 3 years to do something? Did it just 'sit' on the appeal?""Judge is reinstated for 3 weeks," a source has just told us, but the "Administrative Council said it will not re-appoint [any] more this year."

So for the said judge it might mean 3 weeks inside the Organisation (cast away in Haar now) and then no contract renewal. Got that? It would make ILO look like an utter joke. Yet again. Why did it take ILO 3 years to do something? Did it just 'sit' on the appeal? And decided to deliver a pretense of 'justice' in an "exceptional" fashion just weeks before the contract's expiry (rather than several weeks after expiry, i.e. the next ILO session)?

"It's an utter disgrace not just for the EPO but also for ILO and for Europe."One cannot help but deem the whole thing a "ploy". I asked my source, "will they not renew his contract?"

"It ends this month," my source reassured me. "In October they said would not renew [any] more this year."

Christoph Ernst was the Chairman at the time. What a Christmas gift for him to give Corcoran. What a wonderful Christian Christoph must be...

What can a judge even practically do in 3 weeks, in an office space he never saw before and after 3 years of an illegitimate suspension? 3 weeks left until Christmas; and until unemployment too? Does Battistelli even recognise Christmas, having already called off many Christian holidays? Will EPO workers (what's left of them) get a full Christmas vacation next year?

And this, ladies and gents, is EPO 'justice'. It's an utter disgrace not just for the EPO but also for ILO and for Europe.
