The EU-Commission søker nå etter lobbyister og spioner i Norge som kan formidle viktig informasjon om vårt styresett, banksystemer o.s.v. som støette til fullt medlemskap i den nye TTIP frihandelsavtalen som har til hensikt å fjerne vårt demokrati og menneskerett,samt få kloa i vårt oljefond for å beskytte sine aksjer og investeringer mot dollaren som er på fallets rand.

TTIP ledes av The Bildeberg Group som representerer 2% av USA´s befolkning men sitter på 70% av de finansielle verdiene.

BLI IKKE LANDSSVIKER!!   Søk ikke på disse stillingene !!
