"Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding." The Bible, Proverbs 17:28.
There truly is nothing new under the sun.
How can Cameron speak with any authority when he hasn't the backing of his own people. He dare not give his own people the chance to express their feelings on the EU. He is not speaking for his constituents or the electorate of this country. So for once I agree with the French. T
Sarkhozy is full of bluster, and did he say those exact words, as
varying reports give different expressions, words?
Very commendable for a politician of such high standing, though he is a bit on the short side, to be rude, why would it be necessary. Not so much standing up for Cameron, but the Frenchman could do with having some manners. They are supposed to be allies after all, storm in a teacup.
em//They are supposed to be allies after all, storm in a teacup. //
Since when have we been allies ? For most of the past century the French weren't even a member of Nato. They have always put the interests of France first as they are now . I didn't say Sarckozy is right about Europe but he was right in telling Cameron that he didn't have the voice of the British people.
