Sarkozy and Merkel have always wanted this level of integration between France and Germany, and they are using the present economic situation as an excuse?
So what?
Cameron and Clegg have always wanted to flog off our schools and hospitals to multinational corporations, and they are using the present economic situation as an excuse?
But they are both wrong.
Catholics ought to have at least a modicum of respect for the truth and neither assertion is true. Any consideration of the facts will show that Merkel and Sarkosy have very different views aboutvEuropean integration and neither Clegg nor Cameron have ever been in the business of 'flogging off' schools. Both are very exercised by the appalling state of our education, the unwillingness of teachers representatives to take seriously the way we have slid down the international comparison charts, and the betrayal of our children in so many school. Using not for profit outside groups is a sensible attempt to improve things. Catholics should never let prejudice distort comment.
