MICHAEL WALSH. AMERICAN FREE PRESS CORRESPONDENT: As George Orwell deduced, “A people who elect corrupt politicians are not victims but accomplices.”

When due diligence by the electorate is not exercised, you end up with 720 Members of the European Parliament representing the 27 member states.

The number of seats is based on each nation’s population. A deeply flawed system that cries out for reform, but it doesn’t stop there.

The role of the European Parliament is primarily advisory in nature. So, why not randomly elect the hoi polloi, which ironically would make the artificial parliament more representative of the alienated people they claim to represent?

After all, such an elected parliament would unlikely be financially or otherwise influenced by the George Soros Foundation.

In one year alone, this disturbing globalist string puller boasted that it held 42 meetings with the European Commission. This 27-member unelected body, supported by a civil service​ larger than that of the Soviet Union, is the actual decision-making governing apparatus of the European Union.

The George Soros Foundation dared to publish a book listing 226 names of European Parliament MEPs who were beneficiaries of this notorious, unaccountable body.

This omnipresent assembly has been described by the UK’s Reform Leader Nigel Farage as “the biggest level of international collusion in history.”

MEP candidates seek election every five years. There is no transparency about these candidates​ and precious little intention to ‘represent the interests of the EU’s 450.4 million citizens.’

Jose Manuel Barroso was a founding unelected President of the European Commission. The Portuguese autocrat with cringe-making Marxist credentials publicly stated that ‘nation states are dangerous if they are excessively democratic.’

Is it surprising, therefore, that the European Union is not only ineffective in world affairs but is torn by internal disagreements?

The erudite political scientist Tarik Cyril Amar writes: “Kaja Kallas, the European Union’s de facto foreign minister, is unusually, grotesquely incompetent, even for an unelected EU apparatchik.

“As long as Europeans, whether at the EU or national level, are represented by the likes of Kallas, Baerbock, or, for that matter, the unelected President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, Macron, Starmer, or Merz, they will not stop Europe’s rapid decline.”

On August 18, for the first time since just before the onset of the Iraq war, the leaders of some of Europe’s most powerful nations flew to Washington, D.C.

Mark Rutte, head of NATO, in crawling reverence to Donald Trump, addressed the US president as ‘daddy’. He was accompanied by the President of the European Commission, von der Leyen.

Otherwise, Chancellor Merz, Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Italian premier Giorgia Meloni, and Finnish Prime Minister Alexander Stubb were there to throw an ineffectual cordon sanitaire around the luckless artificial president of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky.

One senior European diplomat, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, described a sense of panic among the European allies.

Like antisocial children waiting to be chastised by America’s ‘my way or highway’ president, the small group despairingly waited in a room adjacent to the Oval Office.

President Emmanuelle Macron had weightier things to deal with as riot-riven France’s credit score has been downgraded from AA- to A+, the country’s lowest on record.

Such is the public antipathy towards the UK premier’s tenure of No. 10 Downing Street that a violent coup is openly discussed.

The Berlin government, along with other nation-states in the collapsing European Union, is flailing after being reduced to impotence by gathering parties.

A house built on sand will surely fall. The far more pragmatic Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban opined that the EU is in a state of disintegration.

“I believe that the European Union has now entered a state of disintegration. And if this continues, then the EU will go down in history as a depressing result of a noble experiment.”

With a seemingly gift of prophecy, Hungary’s head of state advised EU leaders to travel instead to Moscow to negotiate security deals with Russia.

“Europe, in essence, should not knock on the doors of Washington, but go to Moscow and conclude an agreement on security between the European Union and Russia. Not only about Ukraine, but also on security between the European Union and Russia,” he was quoted as saying.

As the head of a once Soviet State, Viktor Orban might have had in mind an opinion stated by Nikita Khrushchev, the one-time Soviet head of state.

“Support by United States rulers is rather in the nature of the support that the rope gives to a hanged man.”

Of the same mind, I too believe that Europe’s security lies not as a Washington-appointed satrap but in a realignment with Moscow. This would give Europe considerable clout with the expanding Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) and the BRICS trading bloc.

Before this can happen, the European swamp must be drained of an ill-fated leadership hanging on Uncle Sam’s apron strings. With several EU nations and the UK close to economic and social collapse, it may be the only solution to the ongoing crisis. You can share this story on social media: TELL US WHAT YOU THINK
