  1. In case you missed it: a fine article by Pascal Lamy on the Delors method.

    At our best, I think the Commission can still do long-term planning and short-term tactical adjustments.

    But endless crises which necessitate rapid head-of-government haggling, and fear of demagogues, are making it harder to systematically develop an EU vision.

    We shouldn't let it atrophy! Else short-term panicked improv is all we'll be good at.

  3. Hommage #Delors me voy a comer al menos una hora de France Inter y de intellos franceses hablando de Europa. Intento convencerme de que no es masoquismo, es lo que se merece el único gran Presidente de Europa.

  5. Anyone that used the #Erasmus program to study abroad managed to do this thanks to Jacques #Delors who worked on this fantastic policy- his memorial service at Paris under way now. Live on #FranceInfo.

  9. Le décès de #Delors est célébré en grande pompe : enterrement 1e classe de la directive Uber « présomption de salariat », renvoyée à la présidence belge, après un forcing français scandaleux en trilogue ; accord migration dégueulasse à la der discretos honteux. C’est bien, on comprend mieux les « valeurs » de la construction européenne. Pour un retour des putains de principes, fissa.

  10. De mortuis nil/nihil nisi bene [dicendum (est)]
    „Von Verstorbenen [(ist)] nur in guter Weise [(zu) sprechen]“
    (Zitat WP)

    Das heißt nicht, einy müsste die Wahrheit beugen, sondern dass er/sie auch Negatives wertschätzend berichte.
    Mag manchmal untergehen.

  11. Europe has lost one of it's very best. As one of the architects of the European Project, Jacques #Delors transformed Europe from a simple economic union to a true family of nations.

  13. But to return to Jacques #Delors: at a time when he was being vilified by the British press, he remained an inspiration to a new generation of Europeans. As a young civil servant in Whitehall, in the brief time I served there before joining the Commission, I had his portrait pinned above my desk. Up Yours, Brexit.

  15. Delors was one of three notable people I met during the course of that long night. Another was Irish Tánaiste Dick Spring, whose achievement that night must have been the crowning glory of his career. And then there was a certain young Brussels correspondent for the Daily Telegraph. The British Minister (Tory Tim Sainsbury) kicked all officials out of the room so he could brief this hack privately. If #Delors was the best of Europe, that hack was & is the worst.

  17. Jacques #Delors has died today. As a young man he saw the appalling cruelty, #bitterness & division that extreme #nationalism led to. He spearheaded a wonderful idea, that people should cooperate 4 the good of all. He will be greatly missed. #rejoinEU rb.gy/3kmtws

  19. Delors sent his Commissioner for Regional Policy (the Scot, Bruce Millan) home to bed and stayed himself knocking heads together until everyone got a little bit of something. That was one of the last Council meetings to take place on the 14th floor of the old Charlemagne building, before it moved across the Rue de la Loi to the (then) new Justus Lipsius building. In hindsight, it was in many ways the high water mark of the Community approach to European integration. #Delors

  21. My favourite memory of Jacques #Delors: during the tense negotiation of the budget for the EU’s regional aid in 1993, Delors was brought in on a stretcher - suffering debilitating sciatica - to broker a deal at around 4am unlocking billions for Ireland (among others) and prompting the country’s transformation from among Europe’s poorest to one of the world’s richest.

  23. RIP Jacques Delors, a true giant of European integration. You inspired me to choose a career in the service you led, and it was my honour to have served as an official in your Commission. #Delors

  25. A guardarse todos los comentarios de campanillas de que Schäuble fue "clave para la integración europea". #Delors sí que FUE clave para la integración europea.
