 EURSOC: Commission Approved
Nigel Farage of the UK Independence Party brought up a few, ah, difficulties regarding France's commissioner Jacques Barrot.
The EU Referendum Blog has a look at some of his previous "activities" (and French law prevents us from going into too much detail here) which suggest that Farage was right to suspect that voters, if they knew the truth, would not be inclined to "buy a used car" from Barrot.
Apparently Mr Farage's revelations came as a surprise to many of the Frenchman's colleagues: Barrot was a grateful recipient of one of Jacques Chirac's presidential pardons, so it is illegal to even mention his previous activities.

The bid to oust Barroso over a vacation last year with a Greek billionaire was meant ``to provoke the maximum embarrassment for the union before these votes,'' the head of the parliament's Liberals, Graham Watson of the U.K., said in a debate today in Brussels.
Farage, head of a 10-strong faction in the European Parliament that wants Britain to pull out of the EU, accused Barroso of a conflict of interest by going on vacation last year on a yacht owned by Spiros Latsis, son of Greek shipping tycoon John Latsis.
Farage ``finds it strange to accept an invitation to spend a few days on a boat,'' Barroso said.

 UKIPHome Blog Interview Reveals Campbell Bannerman’s Small Government Vision for the UK Independence Party and ...
Two other candidates have joined Farage and Campbell Bannerman in the leadership election but it is widely acknowledged that the victor will be one of these two as a result of their high level political experience, relative electoral success and wide recognition amongst the party’s membership.
In his interview with UKIPHome, Campbell Bannerman, a former Special Advisor directly within Government working closely with Number Ten, reiterated UKIP’s position as the only major UK political party to oppose the plans, widely rejected by the vast majority of the public, to extend state funding of political parties, effectively creating state run parties.
With his commitment to real equality in Britain and a clear manifesto offering a positive, small government vision for Britain combined with his high-level experience within British domestic policies, Campbell Bannerman, working closely with Nigel Farage, has every reason to believe that he will play a major role in reshaping British politics into 4-party politics.
