The revolving door is known and former employees of the US investment bank Goldman Sachs have already managed to many important posts. So Mario Draghi came for example up to the presidential chair of the European Central Bank (ECB), although it was known that he is said to have once helped over Goldman Sachs the Greeks cheating. Now he is almost on the Troika with the overseers of the failed state. And on the long list is also Mario Monti, who managed to rule the a time third largest euro country Italy.
But the revolving door also goes in the other direction, with which the bank is trying to secure its influence to , Now she has hired the former Portuguese prime minister and former EU Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso. The Conservative is entirely on their line and in this direction he had already worked in Brussels. He is now a consultant and “President without portfolio” at Goldman Sachs International (GSI), which has its headquarters in the British capital. He brings “a tremendous experience and especially a deep understanding of Europe”, GSI informed. “His perspective, his judgment and his advice will be for our Supervisory Board, Goldman Sachs and our shareholders and employees of great value.” He will help in advising clients in an “uncertain economic environment,” the influential large US bank founded officially.
Is it a coincidence that after the Proposed referendum on United Kingdom membership of the European Union by the US Bank calculated the former Commission was recruited, which has continued over influential relationships to Brussels? A Schelmm who thinks evil of it, that this is precisely now and in the negotiations on the preferential treatment is done that will get the UK anyway. It is clear that the bank wants to secure their positions in the EU. This has been guaranteed over the City in London.
So far, the bank from there can do their business throughout the EU. But the so-called “passporting rights” could fall to the Proposed referendum on United Kingdom membership of the European Union. The US investment bank therefore also belonged to the clear exit opponents who have made absurd horrors propaganda against the Proposed referendum on United Kingdom membership of the European Union. Goldman Sachs donated even half a million pounds for the Remain campaign. So there is now no surprise that the Bank is now upgraded massively for lobbying in the European Commission.
A revolving door in a completely different direction
After many years as head of the United left (IU) Cayo Lara has now queued in the queue in a Madrid job center. “That’s my revolving door,” he teased via Twitter and published a picture with its wait marker and the number I027. The 64-year-old former farmer who had to leave school at the age of 13, co-founded the Farmers Union COAG. From the Communist Party (PCE) was set up in 2008 to take over the IU leadership for them again.
Lara has completely retired from politics. He did not again a candidate for the presidency and is not a guide member of a formation more that now together with Podemos (We Can) candidate, what displeases him.
He now wants to write his memoirs. That he gets a job offer in the time until retirement in the summer of 2017, he does not fear at an unemployment rate of almost 20% in Spain. But for his family stand to major changes such as the departure from Madrid. The capital is too expensive for them, as well as the two children of a married family man are unemployed. And he has not expected a fat pension. On the lush private supplementary pension for parliamentarians funded by the taxpayer, he had dispensed with the first deputy.
