Agreed, but a bit of guile is required not this current bull in a china shop stuff.They is one of my many complaints, where did the art of diplomacy go.A bit of subtlety would not go amiss, even poor Guy Verhofstadt is destressed.A nice meal,a fine wine a pleasant lady to massage his ego and who knows with one so unloved.
Threats,brow beatings and ultimatums are not winning the argument either at home or away.A pleasant courteous attitude like mine is what is needed and when we get our way there are no shortage of dark alleys in sproutsville where the truncheon can be applied to good effect.
Doris and his conviction to play,pick a date, is pathetic and has just shown him to be a loser.Either walk straight away or play the long game, and as Germany falls into recession and the other minions fall behind offer the carrot of money and trade.That is what they need even if they don`t see it yet.They will,and hey presto we are gone.
