Maybe they should all learn to speak German so there would not be any delays in the translation department!

"Members of the Lower House of the German Parliament, the Bundestag, are struggling to figure out what some EU papers might mean." - this truely is false, because we know of no one in the Bundestag who has ever tried to read anyone of them. Totally independant from any matters of speech or translation even the papers are by design not intended to be understandable, but the rather absolute contrary of that. Actually this does NOT, I repeat it does NOT hinder the political progress of the EU, but again it does the absolute contrary: by no one being able to tell what the EU-Commission does at the end of day, no one cries out against them -what we all shall do to stop them from further on selling the last remains of our peace, property and purpose to their corrupted lords in the industries.
Even should be added, that it requires much more than transparency and uncovering of what the EU-Commission does with the money Europeans give them. It requires the demand for that to be read, understood and discussed and even denied on the side of our national representators and therefor ourselves in the first place to create and empower such representators on our own.
The actual political class of course blames the EU. They are blaming others all the time to draw attention away from the simple fact of their own poor function, which only lies on another level of management, but is not different from what is done in the Commission. This is the danger and struggle Europeans are now dealing with.

 

SPRINGTIME FOR MERKEL

It's Springtime for Merkel and Germany.
It's Winter for Rajoy and Spain.
Bailouts are moving at a faster pace.
Lookout, here comes the master race.

They should make American English the official language of the EU.

That way, everyone would only need to speak 2 languages, including the UK and Ireland.

If Europe is looking for a proper federal state which will be the only answer to it's financial problem. The EU must decide to have only one official language. This could be done by holding referendums in all the states of Europe. To make it fairer Nations could not vote for their own language .Then we could gradually phase other languages spoken in Europe and within a generation Europe could be monolingual . This would help weld the union together. There is no room for petty nationalism in the 21st century . It is a bourgeois concept designed to keep working class people down, enslaved to archaic ideas. The only people who cling to nationalism are fascist by nature. 

Angela Merkel seems to be morphing into a man - unfortunately for her she is beginning to look like Herr Otto Furst von Bismarch . 

From the photo:

Jean-C laude Juncker, "What do you think of my speech?"

Ange la Merkel, "You've spelt Heil fuhrer wrong and I think we should remove 3rd reich from the opening paragraph since we're only talking about Greece for now"

That's why the EU as a political union or even federal state will never work as intended by its detached elites.

That is not only because we speak different languages - also the way to say things is different within the different cultures we have - which is very difficult to translate.

Th e only way to bring this all together is by sheer force and dictatorship. In the long run, this would fail, too - but with much more damage done. Let's hope it will not happen.

Dear RT, Lower House is also a translation that does not cover the content. Better translated is; the members of the German Parliament (Bundestag). They also elect the German premier (Kanzler). The website ipu.org learns there is also a federal council (Bundesrat). Germany is a federation (Bund). Many european regulations seem to be copied from the german laws. From several european countries the representatives say, what does it all matter. Not so the german. They insist everything done correctly. That is why all over the world people want german cars and factories want german machines. And thanks to Russian oil and gas the german economy can produce.

Brilliant!

Ha ha. Divide and conquer. The more language confusion the better. Slow em down. Isnt that what happened in the original Tower of Babel that was being built to reach God?

If the EU survives, they will have to eventually drop the farce of maintaining 23 working languages and settle on one (English, since it already is the common language of the EU except for official documents and speeches in the EU parliament) or at most two or three. 

Of course Latin would solve the problem of national bias, but people would ridicule the idea even though it already makes up a substantial portion of vocabulary in practically every European language.

or at least some English

All Europeans should speak Latin
