.@vonderleyen poised to interview @MaireadMcGMEP & @AMcDowell early this week. For which job? Unclear! Maybe @dreynders gets trade portfolio... or sth else in case of reshuffle!
Such is the absurdity of the “1 country-1 commissioner” rule. #IamEuropean

Of course, "the @EU_Commission shall be completely independent" and "the members of the Commission shall neither seek nor take instructions from any Government". (Art. 17.3 TEU #LisbonTreaty). So there should be no need for #1country1commissioner rule. #IamEuropean 🇪🇺
Furthermore, "As from 1/11/2014, the @EU_Commission shall consist of a number of members [equal to] two thirds of the number of Member States" (Art. 17.5 TEU #LisbonTreaty)..... "unless the @EUCouncil [...] decides to alter this number". Which it did right away. #IamEuropean 🇪🇺
