BREAKING NEWS: BARROSO NOT CANDIDATE TO HEAD NATO

Barroso, President of the EU's executive Commission began his career as a leader of the underground Maoist MRPP (Reorganising Movement of the Proletariat) Party (wiki)

In a 1976 interview he criticized the bourgeois education system which "throws students against workers and workers against students".

@BarrosoEU says his new proposal on #EU defence nothing to do w/his possible candidacy for @NATO SecGen. But doesn't deny interest in job.
