Frans timmermans is now the executive vice president. You call that moved up.

Farage got thrown out ?

He had the biggest single party in the EU Parliament - as for Timmermans he got trampled over by von der leyen because the last thing germany wanted was the dutch in charge. That would be the tail wagging the dog.

Yep.

There were elections. The best woman for the job got it, not because she is a woman, but she is better than the men running for the job. Get used to that happening.

she wasn't even on the ballot and only won by 7 nominations (52% / 48% funnily enough,).

Timmermans was way in the lead until Merkel decided that she didn't want a Dutch man in charge Instead you got the most unpopular German Minister as the most unpopular appointed leader

... only in the EU

Nice fabel, but timmermans got stonewalled by the eastern europe members because in the past he had forced them to take their share in housing of refugees instead of letting them travel on to britain.
Merkel abstained from voting, as you could have known.

I would advise you to look for facts more often. It increases your stature in debating. Now you're more of a pupil to me, still learning.

The previous man you designated sidelined is at the moment talking to frost.

Just like I believe you need the best person on the job, irrespective of gender, I also think nationality is not the determining factor. Or do you differ in opinion?

Yes thats why a German got the job - even though she wasn't even on the ballot.

Timmermans is her bag man. He's good at that.

You seem to know that job well, to be able to judge whether somebody is good at it
