Together, we are stronger and together we can build a stronger Europe." 6 Dear Friend, Our relationship has recently suffered, but I wanted to thank you for all that you have done for me and my family throughout my life. As my British mother carried me, each day was stress free and happy as I developed to full term. She was protected from losing her job because of you. When I was born, my father, though he nearly passed out in the delivery room, was on nappy duty and night time feed every day for a week. It didn’t matter that I made them both so tired, because you gave them a right to be with me. I learned new languages at school though ‘Merde’ was banned from the house. I even got grounded once for saying ‘Fahrt’, though it meant drive. I was lucky to eat safe, wholesome food and I played out day after day breathing in the clean air with my friends [4]. It was all because of you. I remember one day when my father ran with me along clean beaches for hours on end, telling me stories of how dirty the beach and sea used to be. That was the day my mother was interviewed for her promotion. Only men had been the boss before, but she was treated equally because of you. She got the job. When it was time to study, you made it easy. You see, we were a little poor, even with mum’s new job. I had dreamed of studying for a year in Europe, but I was too scared to dream. Then my teacher told me I could apply for funding and with those forms my dreams came true. In my first job, my boss couldn’t make me work excessively and I even got my minimum holiday and pay, all because of you. In my 20s, I travelled through Italy and Spain, and then came back on a cheap plane. All easier, because of you. When my next employer made me redundant, it was you who protected me. You were always there for me, to support me in my work. When my father got cancer, my mother was by his side every day, but I could not face seeing him fade away. My mother was so heartbroken when he died that she was diagnosed with depression, but it was you who saved her job. It was because of you that I was free to love any person I chose. He was the boy down the road, just a mile away. Because of you there was no border to stand in our way. We took peace and democracy for granted, my Irish man and me. From Cradle to Grave, you have cared for me and I wanted you to know that no matter what, I hope that our relationship shall continue to thrive and grow. I will always THANK EU. A.Robinson A message of love and hope, through a fictional tale showing some of the laws that protect us because of the EU. 7 We wanted to thank the EU for all that we have achieved together.

  • Mr Josep Borrell Vice-President of the European Commission High Representative of the Union for the CFSP Rue De La Loi 170 1000 Brussels
    Mr Josep Borrell Vice-President of the European Commission High Representative of the Union for the CFSP Rue de la Loi 170 1000 Brussels Brussels, 16th April 2021 Dear Mr. High Representative; Mr Vice-President of the Commission: A delegation from the illegitimate National Assembly of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, which emerged from the electoral farce organised on 6th December 2020 by the regime of Nicolás Maduro, recently paid a visit to Brussels and was officially received by the institution you lead. According to a statement you made on behalf of the European Union on 6th December, this spurious process took place in the absence of electoral conditions that could have guaranteed its credibility, without any respect for political pluralism, and in an atmosphere of persecution and disqualification of democratic leaders whose legitimate rights were curtailed. Your statement concludes that such circumstances could not consider this process credible, inclusive, and transparent and therefore the results did not represent the will of the Venezuelan people. That initial statement was confirmed on 6 January of this year by a new declaration, in similar terms to those expressed on 6 December, and by the conclusions of the Foreign Affairs Council of 25 January. These reiterated the lack of recognition of the electoral process and regretted the behaviour of the authorities of the Maduro regime, whose actions are preventing a solution to the serious crisis in Venezuela. We were surprised and gravely concerned to learn that on 14th April, at your request, senior officials of the European External Action Service received the aforementioned delegation, comprising Iris Varela, Pedro Carreño and Desirée Santos Amaral, at the EEAS headquarters.

  • Power Ranking of Meps in the Agricultural Committee of the European Parliament
    Who has the critical vote? Power ranking of MEPs in the Agricultural Committee of the European Parliament A. Kovacs¹; I. Fertő²; L. Kóczy²; B. Sziklai²; A.A. Nás² 1: Tec de Monterrey, Department of International Business, Mexico, 2: Hungarian Academy of Sciences, Institute of Economics, Hungary Corresponding author email: [email protected] Abstract: We analyze the voting power of the members of the agricultural committee of the European Parliament using a spatial Banzhaf power index. Using a novel dataset of roll-call votes in the current EP-term, we identify critical members whose votes are necessary to form winning coalitions. We found that committee members with formal positions, EP group coordinators as well as German, French, Italian and British members are powerful actors. Nevertheless, rapporteurs are not necessarily influential. We also concluded that members with moderate ideological position but from Member States with extreme agricultural importance are the most powerful ones.

They long to know what the decision-makers are thinking, so they can plan ahead. They yearn to be in the loop, to have the drop on things. It is the genius of the lobbyists and the consultants to understand this need, and to satisfy it in the most imaginative way. Business forums are vehicles for forging links and maintain a dialogue with business, industrial and trade organisations. They allow the discussions of general and pre-legislative issues in a different context from lobbying contacts about specific matters. They provide an opportunity to get Members of the European Parliament and other decision-makers from the European institutions together with various business sectors.
