//I feel a lot more comfortable personally being governed by the likes of Martin Selmayr.//
Indeed. A career civil servant, a Euromaniac of the highest order, a person who has never sullied his hands by standing for election in any office whatsoever. On top of that he was appointed to his current position (Secretary-General of the European Commission) in highly dubious circumstances which led to an investigation by the European Ombudsman. It found instances of "maladministration" and concluded that the Commission "broke the letter and spirit of EU law". The Ombudsman's findings were (predictably - rejected by the EU Commission. Here's a snippet of the skulduggery surrounding his appointment:
//The fact that there would be a vacancy for the post of secretary-general — that the incumbent Alexander Italianer wanted to retire — was kept secret from the rest of the College of European Commissioners. A vacancy for the post of deputy secretary-general was created (by moving the incumbent aside), so that Selmayr could be appointed to that post and, four minutes later, promoted to secretary-general.//
Last week Mr Selmayr announced his resignation from the post and so has the dubious distinction of enjoying - by far - the shortest tenure in the job.
Sounds like just the man I'd like to be able to vote for.

[What she promised, and what she has delivered]
//Britain needs a strong and stable government to get the best Brexit deal for our country and its people.
Britain needs strong and stable leadership to make the most of the opportunities Brexit brings for hardworking families.
Britain needs a clear plan.
This manifesto, Forward, Together: Our Plan for
a Stronger Britain and a Prosperous Future will meet the great challenges of our time, beyond Brexit.
With this plan and with a strong hand through Brexit, we will build a stronger, fairer, more prosperous Britain, for all of us. //
After such optimism, the result IS a humiliation.

The reason for that, Ikky, is that the politicians deciding on the plan for the 27 are quite happy to see their countries subjugated to a foreign power. Most of our politicians are similarly minded whereas, because they were asked, the people of the UK (unlike those of the 27) have said that they are not happy with such an arrangement.
