The gathering of fools
Anyone remember the Lisbon Strategy?
This was a grand European Union programme, adopted by the European Council in Lisbon 9 years ago(March 2000), the objective was to turn the EU into "the most competitive and dynamic knowledge-based economy" in the world by 2010.
It set a number of specific targets, such as average annual economic growth of 3 per cent and achieving full employment by 2010.
Today of all days , would it be cruel and gratuitous to mock the EU's lofty ambitions.
