At least one of the "characters" mentioned in the op was employed by the EUSSR, as are others who post on here under pseudonyms. One of the conditions imposed on them by their former employer, if they want to draw the pension that they have sold their souls for, is to never criticise the EUSSR or their pensions could be withheld. They are also encouraged to sing its praises and they are "supplied" with pro EU propaganda in all the "literature" that they receive from their former employers. One of my partner's ex work colleagues worked in Brussels as an interpreter, very well paid and massive expense account with large ones all round. The ex colleague of hers was sickened by much of what went on and stuck it out because it was too good to miss. Now on massive pension and reminded often that the pension comes with conditions. It used to be called bribery or hush money.
