One thought on “International summer school “Tantamount in Diversity””

  1. There is no such thing as Holland! The state Holland, part of the Netherlands, was split in two at the very end of the 18th century.(Cameron is not PM of England eteihr, is he? Just as people from Northern-Ireland are most certainly not English.)That aside, I do think that before we should not conclude that this is a funny joke until it is accepted by all national parliaments. Only then can we be sure the sovereignty of our great nations will not be endangered by those reckless eurocrats!Hand the proposal to the Council of Ministers, they’ll know what to do with it.
