Brexit: the masquerade of the Great Repeal Bill

September 12, 2017

The European Union acquis – that is, the body of EU laws and regulations applicable to Member States – comes to over 14,000 texts in total (1,685 Directives and 12,410 Regulations). The day after Brexit, this legislative mass will continue applying to the 27…but also to the United Kingdom. This is something that would greatly… » read more

Bonnes résolutions pour la rentrée des lobbyistes

September 5, 2017

S’agissant des vacances d’été, les rythmes scolaires et rythmes des lobbyistes ne vont pas de pair. Tandis que les congés d’été des écoliers tendent à se réduire, ceux des lobbyistes européens tendent à s’allonger. Cette année donne aux observateurs le sentiment non plus d’un pont du mois d’août, mais quasiment d’un viaduc – que dis-je… » read more

Brexit, one year on

June 28, 2017

What strikes me most, 12 months into the Brexit process, is the preparedness of some and unpreparedness of others.   Methodical preparation in Brussels After lengthy meetings with officials in the European Council’s Brexit taskforce at the end of August 2016, I was amazed by their in-depth knowledge of the ins and outs of Article… » read more

Theresa May and Article 50: a Christmas tale!

April 3, 2017

23 June 2016 to 29 March 2017: it took 280 days to come up with a letter that fills me with a range of emotions, from laughter to incredulity. And in my mind, it confirms something I have never doubted: that Brexit will not happen – at least not within the timeframe and procedures envisaged.… » read more

Theresa May et l’article 50 : comme un conte de Noël !

March 31, 2017

23 juin 2016 – 29 mars 2017 : 280 jours pour produire une lettre qui m’inspire une gamme de sentiments allant du sourire à l’incrédulité. Et me confirme – ce dont je n’ai jamais douté – que le Brexit n’aura pas lieu, en tout cas ni dans les délais ou les modalités envisagées. Le Brexit… » read more

Brexit et PAC : résumé de notre étude approfondie

November 29, 2016

Pour donner au Brexit une dimension concrète, j’ai choisi de l’aborder sous l’angle de la Politique Agricole Commune, qui demeure à ce jour la seule politique intégrée de l’Union. Ne prétendant pas maîtriser l’ensemble de ces questions, j’ai obtenu l’aide de Michel Jacquot, un nom bien connu, ancien du Cabinet Delors, négociateur de la Commission… » read more

Trump and Brexit are twins!

November 22, 2016

Brexit was a rejection – not necessarily of the EU as a concept, but of a system that, instead of promoting the well-being and security of its people, is morphing into an immense bureaucracy lacking nuance or vision. It is a caricature of what it should be. Meanwhile, Euroscepticism is growing every day. Similarly, Trump… » read more

Trump et Brexit sont jumeaux !

Le Brexit est synonyme de rejet. Pas nécessairement du rejet de l’Union en tant que concept, mais du rejet d’un système qui au lieu de promouvoir le bien-être et la sécurité des peuples se transforme en une immense bureaucratie sans nuance, sans vision. Une caricature de ce qu’il faudrait faire. Avec chaque jour davantage d’eurosceptiques.… » read more
