Is it not ludicrous that there are so many Commissioners? There are far too many of them to give them all proper jobs. Half of them do not have a proper job now. We have ended up with a system under which each country gets one Commissioner, but they are not meant to be there as ““the British Commissioner””. They should work together as a commission. When it comes to state aid, it is particularly important that they act independently, not as a national representative.
