The European Commission published a report providing a clear picture of the situation in each Member State: measures in place, outstanding issues, policies that are working and areas that could be improved.
A lot of waffle here but just because it's me I picked this bit to highlight :
Politicos, have a field daydiscuss all this waffle and "suppose and barometer this" Facts not many!
" 3. Political dimension
Political accountability. Integrity in politics remains an issue for many EU States. For instance, codes of conduct within political parties or elected assemblies at central or local level are often missing or lack teeth.
Financing of political parties. Although many Member States have adopted stronger rules on party financing, considerable shortcomings remain. Dissuasive sanctions against illegal party funding are rarely imposed in the EU.
"Simple is good" & I strongly dislike politics. You cannot defend the indefensible.
