I think they’re going to Dublin so they can pig out in peace……… The European Investment Bank is having a fat cat supper in Dublin on the 23 & 24 of October. The EIB is the fat cats’ fatcatbank. It lends more money than the World Bank and is dining on hypocrisy at the Four Seasons Hotel. That’ll be a mixed bag of winters for the poor, and undiluted Summer for the poor oppressed personages below:
· Bertie Ahern, Prime Minister, Ireland
· Bernard Barraqué, Professor Ecole Nationale de Ponts et Chaussées, France
· Lennart Billfalk, CEO Vattenfall, Sweden (to be confirmed)
· Fatih Birol, Chief Economist of International Energy Agency
· Royston Brady, Lord Mayor of Dublin
· Terry Brown, DG Operations in Europe, EIB
· Istvan Csillag, Minister of Economy and Transport, Hungary
· Kristalina Georgieva, Director of Environment, World Bank
· Jorgen Henningsen, Principal Counsellor, Directorate General for Energy and Transport, European Commission

· Michael G. Tutty, Vice-President of the EIB
· Margot Wallström, Commissioner for Environment, EU Commission
· Andreas Wurzer, European Freshwater Coordinator, World Wildlife Fund, France
I’ve checked the program and it’s heavy on banking matters, starting with a lunch, followed by digestion, then a break, more digestion, dinner….going on to the next day and finally finishing on ……you guessed it, another lunch
Over the past six months, Active Bankwatchers have helped to fight against EU plans to fund a nuclear reactor in Romania, EIB and EU funding for a controversial motorway in the Czech Republic, an environmentally destructive gold mine in Romania, and a hazardous Kárahnjúkar Hydropower Project and a aluminium smelter in Iceland.
If you fancy watching all that gravy dripping off their multiple chins, why not go along and lend them your support
