Indifference can also be a weapon
Perry de Havilland (London)  European Union • Irish affairs

In what is a splendid testament to the sense and wisdom of Irish youth, when the EU held a conference for young people in Ireland (free registration required)... how many young Irish people turned up?

None.

Clearly they had better things to do. How very, very, very, splendid.

Would have been a more Bravo moment if they'd turned up and actually told the Government what they disliked. Then again, that would assume any of them can form an opinion to begin with.

Actually, indifference is the most powerful weapon the EU has. Make things sufficiently boring and complex,and no one will be able to organise opposition.
