COMING TO A CITY NEAR YOU
The EIB is now the biggest public lender in the world, with an annual lending in the range of 36 billion Euros. Who owns it? It appears we do. Is it accountable to us? Apparently not.
I think they’re going to Dublin so they can pig out in peace……… The European Investment Bank is having a fat cat supper in Dublin on the 23 & 24 of October. The EIB is the fat cats’ fatcatbank. It lends more money than the World Bank and is dining on hypocrisy at the Four Seasons Hotel. That’ll be a mixed bag of winters for the poor, and undiluted Summer for the poor oppressed personages below:
· Bertie Ahern, Prime Minister, Ireland
· Bernard Barraqué, Professor Ecole Nationale de Ponts et Chaussées, France
· Lennart Billfalk, CEO Vattenfall, Sweden (to be confirmed)
· Fatih Birol, Chief Economist of International Energy Agency
· Royston Brady, Lord Mayor of Dublin
· Terry Brown, DG Operations in Europe, EIB
· Istvan Csillag, Minister of Economy and Transport, Hungary
· Kristalina Georgieva, Director of Environment, World Bank
· Jorgen Henningsen, Principal Counsellor, Directorate General for Energy and Transport, European Commission
· Tom Hoff, Director, Energy Research Centre of the Netherlands (to be confirmed)
· Frank Joshua, Chief Executive Officer, The Climate Investment Partnership
· Prof. Antonio Luque, Director Institute for Solar Energy, Polytechnic University of Madrid, Spain
· Altero Matteoli, Minister for the Environment, Italy
· Philippe Maystadt, President of the EIB
· Charles McCreevy, Minister for Finance, Ireland
· Ray McSharry, former Irish Minister for Finance and Commissioner for Agriculture
· Frank Overmeyer, Head of Strategy, Product and Environment, DaimlerChrylser, Germany
· Jaroslav Palas, Minister of Agriculture, Czech Republic
· Wolfgang Roth, Vice-President of the EIB
· Peter Sedgwick, Vice-President of the EIB
· Dr. Hermann Scheer, Winner of the World Solar Prize and Alternative Nobel Prize, EUROSOLAR, Germany
· Hans Chr. Schmidt, Minister for the Environment, Denmark (to be confirmed)
· Marc Tabouis, Member of the Management Commitee, Credit Agricole Indosuez, France
· Michael G. Tutty, Vice-President of the EIB
· Margot Wallström, Commissioner for Environment, EU Commission
· Andreas Wurzer, European Freshwater Coordinator, World Wildlife Fund, France
I’ve checked the program and it’s heavy on banking matters, starting with a lunch, followed by digestion, then a break, more digestion, dinner….going on to the next day and finally finishing on ……you guessed it, another lunch
Over the past six months, Active Bankwatchers have helped to fight against EU plans to fund a nuclear reactor in Romania, EIB and EU funding for a controversial motorway in the Czech Republic, an environmentally destructive gold mine in Romania, and a hazardous Kárahnjúkar Hydropower Project and a aluminium smelter in Iceland.
If you fancy watching all that gravy dripping off their multiple chins, why not go along and lend them your support

pie every fucking last one of them, so that some day international, transnational, internal, local and community disputes may be sorted with a paper plate, some cream or shaving foam and no poor effin eejit ends up with the torturers ever again.
Shouldn't you do it yourself, and even if you just pick your favourite target, then someone else can do the rest!
that is the point.
I have found it most useful and efficacious.
That is why I recommend it to all and sundry.
Tis better than resurrecting the red brigade.
