Unanimity by the EUC and qualified majority in the EUP, they'd get it fairly easily in that circumstance.Also worth noting that it would be the EU /EC that would decide this, and I suspect it would not rule in the UK's favour!
Possibly, but unlikely given the justification for the introduction of Article 7 in the context of enlargement, in any case hardly 'persistent' is it?Attempting to disable the EC would be a serious breach.
Except it wouldn't constitute a breach of the Article, even the ECJ has to follow its own rules if it doesn't it would challenged in the ICJ.Unanimity by the EUC and qualified majority in the EUP, they'd get it fairly easily in that circumstance.
That part isn't qualitative but rather deliberately vaguely worded mate. If Orban were to carry out a one off mass killing in Hungary that wouldn't be 'persistent' either but you can bet Hungary would be suspended.Possibly, but unlikely given the justification for its introduction in the context of enlargement, in any case hardly 'persistent' is it?
Ask George. He posted it.Did he actually even say this?
Perhaps I have just lost touch with the latest position - has the UK the ability to veto following 29/03/19?Can't see this silliness being true, but if it is I suppose it should appeal to people like Gina Miller who seem to love these sort of obscure points of law.
Well, mass killing involves repetition therefore would be persistent but delaying the appointment of a Commisioner is a one off.That part isn't qualitative but rather deliberately vaguely worded mate.

Nah, a mass killing is by nature singular. You're thinking of a serial killer. In any case mate I've taken a look at the regs involving commissioners, if the UK doesn't nominate one there doesn't seem to be anything stopping the EC president keeping the incumbent commissioner in their post.Well, mass killing involves repetition therefore would be persistent but delaying the appointment of a Commisioner is a one off.
I personally think this is all a red herring and crap being invented by Remainers - perhaps I will be proven wrong - fair enoughAlso worth noting that it would be the EU /EC that would decide this, and I suspect it would not rule in the UK's favour!
