EP Schulz threatens Greeks with Armageddon – Can we sue him for “moral damage” & “breach of public office”?

“Without new money, salaries won’t be paid, the health system will stop functioning, the power network and public transport will break down and they won’t be able to import vital goods because nobody can pay” President of European Parliament Martin Schulz warned Greek voters one day before the crucial Referendum on Sunday.

Schulz’s warning targets some 1,500,000 jobless and their families, roughly estimated at least 3.500,000 people, without health insurance, with no money available to buy a ticket fair or pay their electricity bill, who nourish themselves from soup kitchens and charity packages with pasta, rice, canned tomatoes, 1 bottle of oil and maybe a bottle of shampoo. Schulz’s warning targets all these people who already suffer the so-called austerity-depression and anxiety attack for the last five years.

Theoretically if not all Greeks, at least these above mentioned could file a lawsuit against the President of the EP for violating his post’s “neutrality”, “for blatant intervention in internal political and fiscal affairs of a sovereign country” – how much more as the EP is not part for the creditors’ three-institutions – and for “causing moral damage and psychological distress” to at least several million Greek citizens.

Not to mention the fact, that these austerity-ridden Greeks used to pay their taxes and fund the salary of Schulz & Schulz.

I suppose inthe free market,  Schulz & Schulz would have been fired for incompetence and for breach of duty and code of conduct in context of his public office.

On Thursday, Schulz told German daily Handelsblatt that the elected Syriza government should be replaced by “technocrat” government until stability is restored.

“We should appoint governments of technocrats,” Martin Schulz told Handelsblatt.

    Costs nothing, just a walk to the police-station and then you should sue him on all possible broken laws, you don’t need to specify them – to specify would be a mistake too – then the prosecutor must decide and you should bring coffee.
    Maybe one should sell the idea to a foreign TV-team before they escape the flying marble and have a break on an island; but as on islands are also police-stations…

  2. That might be possible, who knows.

      I’m curious & very interested

      • Forget it, these boys and girls have their backsides well covered…

        Members of the European Parliament are granted a special regime of immunities: they enjoy absolute immunity for the votes cast and opinions expressed in the performance of their duties, and protection from prosecutions and restrictions of their personal freedom
        during the sessions of the Parliament…
        …Absolute immunity for opinions and votes (also called parliamentary privilege, irresponsabilité, Verantwortungsfreiheit or Abstimmungs- und Redefreiheit, insindacabilità) ensures enhanced protection for MEPs’ freedom of expression. It prevents any type of
        judicial proceedings being brought against Members for votes or opinions expressed in the performance of their duties in the course of the mandate.

        • The source for the above comment is a document called “THE IMMUNITY OF MEMBERS OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT” http://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/IDAN/2014/509981/IPOL_IDA%282014%29509981_EN.pdf

          OH SHIT! but if EP majority vote to lift his immunity?

        • keeptalkinggreece

          and nobody hinders me to file the lawsuit against him even if he is protected by immunity

          • OH SHIT! but if EP majority vote to lift his immunity?

            And what do you think the chances of that are? The EP is the most impotent, most expensive non-sensical talk-shop on earth. No teeth, no balls, no power, no vision, no back bone, just a ridiculous pay packet for all those pretending to be important in it, guaranteeing they will dance to whatever tune they are told to dance to…

          • And a few years ago, the rest of Europe was complaining that the Greek Parliament had to lift the immunity for Golden Dawn to be prosecuted, as if this were not true for all parliaments. What we see again and again is massive hypocrisy, lies and propaganda from mainly northern European countries. More recently, the Eastern ones started to play the same game.

  3. So it obviously is OK to take billions of taxpayers money of other countries and threaten to never pay it back and then insult them in national TV.

    But if they criticize, that is an offense to the Greek nation.

    Nobody in the whole world gets that logic. The only good this here is that people outside of Europe are not following the details of this crisis.

      “National TV”, “Greek nation”, what? Hallucination?
      May be bikes can be chairs but chairs can’t be bikes

    • You’ve probably forgotten the disgrace the Green nation has been subject to for the past 5 years by its “fellow members”, both in the political and the media landscape. Public opinion has been driven towards the “lazy greeks” moto and governments have been elected based on that rhetoric.

      In addition, you are utterly misguided. ΝΟ government member has ever threatened not to pay back the debt. Definitely noone within the negotiating team. The government has only asked for debt restructure and austerity relaxation.

      Lastly, the WHOLE WORLD complies with this logic expect for the Euro members.

    Did this fart mouth was in Greece to campaign for “Yes, sir” as promised?

  5. i would take a threat from Martin Schulz
    as a compliment

  6. MaRTIN Shultz is another terrorist. I praise the brave people who had the courage to say no to those who do no want anything else but the humiliation of Greece.
    Martin Schultz, Merkel, Schaeuble will have to deal with Greece’s answer to German threats.
    A new order has come out in Europe, and it won’t be the German imperialist one.
    Long life to Greece and the Greek people.

  7. Schulz just stated the obvious. There’s hard times ahead for Greece, money is running short, soon even basic necessities like pharmaceuticals will become scarce. That you folks don’t like reality just shows your delusions. Where, do you think, the money to prevent a disastrous liquidity shortage in Greece shall come from? Do you believe in Santa Claus to come early this year?
