EU impossibility of performance
The European Court of Auditors publishes today its Annual Report on the implementation of the 2004 EU general budget
The Court's President, Mr Weber said today "The Court found that the vast majority of the payments' budget was again materially affected by errors of legality and regularity in the underlying transactions. This is a result of inherently risky transactions, and supervisory and control systems that are ineffective in terms of limiting the risk of irregularity to an adequate level"
In other words, for the 11th year running the books of this corrupt organisation don't balance and we cannot legally sign off the accounts.
Well, there is a solution: We should withdraw from the European Union. This is "Impossible" some might say, we have to meet our solum treaty obligations. But it should be remembered that a treaty obligation works both ways and the EU have clearly not met its side of the bargain.
The EU draws its LEGAL BASIS on budgetary maters from Article 268 to 280 of the EC Treaty. As it has not performed or complied for 11 years we can withdraw using the provision of Article 61 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties
Article 61 Supervening impossibility of performance
A party may invoke the impossibility of performing a treaty as a ground for terminating or withdrawing from it if the impossibility results from the permanent disappearance or destruction of an object indispensable for the execution of the treaty. If the impossibility is temporary, it may be invoked only as a ground for suspending the operation of the treaty.
11 years of non compliance feels fairly permanent to me.
