@ChristophMllers Hi Chistoph. Let me clarify (& this is clear in the linked articles): 1. I never say & don't mean to imply that judges of BVerfG or those supporting their position are racists or autocrats. My point is that BVerfG is advocating a nullification doctrine like Calhoun's 1/n
@ChristophMllers 2/n. also my point isn't that the esteemed BVerfG is anything like the captured constitutional courts of HU or PL (the latter isn't even a court as @ProfPech has shown). My point is that if they can nullify, it gives an excuse for those others to do the same
@ChristophMllers @ProfPech 3/n. and as i say in thread and articles, if all 27 constitutional courts can simply nullify what deem to be ultra vires EU acts/ ECJ rulings, then the EU legal order can't survive.
@ChristophMllers @ProfPech 4/n & as for argument that bad faith actors will always find a reason to do badly... I find that like arguments against gun control in US: "Criminals will always find a way to kill etc..." True perhaps, but not a convincing argument against careful regulation of dangerous weapons
@ChristophMllers @ProfPech 5/5 My question to you would be how is EU legal order supposed to operate if 27 different courts can nullify EU acts & overrule ECJ decisions? (That would be untenable in any case, but especially so when some states are autocracies who will abuse these well-intentioned doctrines)
