An Englishman in New Europe: korrik 2007
http://talesfromneweurope.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
An Englishman in New Europe. E martë, 3 korrik 2007. Has the European Commission gone utterly bonkers? While it understandbly wishes to shake of its rather dusty and dry reputation - was a video depicting multiple copulation scenes from European cinema not a bridge too far? The EU is great, it's necessary, and it's noble.but I don't think it'll ever be sexy. Try again, Ms Wallstrom. Postime më të reja. Postime më të vjetra. Abonohu te: Postimet (Atom).

An Englishman in New Europe: For an EU based on subsidiarity
http://talesfromneweurope.blogspot.com/2008/02/for-eu-based-on-subsidiarity.html
An Englishman in New Europe. E enjte, 7 shkurt 2008. For an EU based on subsidiarity. I was somewhat confused and alarmed by Arthur’s Grove’s letter in the WMN from 6 February (see below), which suggests that the vast majority of our MPs in Westminster should be made redundant. For a UKIP member to come out with such a statement strikes me as odd to say the least. Furthermore, the case he builds up against the EU is fundamentally flawed. Secondly, these countries may one day join the EU, and Brussels is ...

An Englishman in New Europe: mars 2007
http://talesfromneweurope.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
An Englishman in New Europe. E shtunë, 31 mars 2007. Arabian Adventure coming up! In spite of a mild hangover brought on by that deadly concoction of sparkling wine, crushed strawberries and dark beer, I must say I'm in sparkling spirits today! I've just found out that I'll be spending nearly a month in the Middle East (in the United Arab Emirates, to be more precise). I'll be leaving in just over a week, after spending the Easter weekend in Berlin. E diel, 18 mars 2007. Livin' it large in L'viv. Lengthy...

An Englishman in New Europe: qershor 2007
http://talesfromneweurope.blogspot.com/2007_06_01_archive.html
An Englishman in New Europe. E mërkurë, 13 qershor 2007. Change the record, Orbán. Am I the only person in Hungary who’s getting bored with the endless whining rhetoric of the country’s opposition leader? You can of course argue that whining rhetoric is the job – even duty – of any opposition leader, but Victor Orbán seems to take it to the extreme. Rather than making endless calls for Gyurcsany’s resignation and making absurd claims about how Hungary’s aspirations to join the euro would have...The anniv...

An Englishman in New Europe: nëntor 2007
http://talesfromneweurope.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
An Englishman in New Europe. E enjte, 29 nëntor 2007. I'm the last person you'll find indulging in a rant against the Americans. I take those generalist claims that Americans are ignorant about everything that lies beyond their borders with the smallest pinch of salt. That said, you've got to check out the video at the below link - it's a right shocker! Http:/ comment.blog.hu/2007/11/27/magyarorszag az meg mi. Postime më të reja. Postime më të vjetra.

An Englishman in New Europe: dhjetor 2007
http://talesfromneweurope.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
An Englishman in New Europe. E mërkurë, 12 dhjetor 2007. Why does Russia go for Britain's cultural jugular? The UK and Russia have not been the best of diplomatic buddies of late - that's for sure. Today's announcement however that the British Council's licence would be revoked in Russia's regions (i.e outside Moscow) as of January 2008 is both puzzling and, upon reflection, chilling. Why instead have a go at the UK's leading cultural and English language institution - the British Council? European Integ...

An Englishman in New Europe: The Balkan situation will make or break the European project
http://talesfromneweurope.blogspot.com/2007/12/balkan-situation-will-make-or-break.html
An Englishman in New Europe. E shtunë, 1 dhjetor 2007. The Balkan situation will make or break the European project. European Integration as the "guardian of peace" may at first glance appear a dated concept (and one which I and many Western Europeans under the age of sixty will respect rather than fully appreciate). Many of us are fortunate to have known nothing other than peace, and the EU has needed to find other raisons d'etre as the decades have gone by. Postim më i ri. Postim më i vjetër. I'm a rec...

An Englishman in New Europe: Turkey's New President
http://talesfromneweurope.blogspot.com/2007/09/turkeys-new-president.html
An Englishman in New Europe. E premte, 7 shtator 2007. While his appointment as President may still prove a somewhat divisive issue in Turkey, what are the implications for the country’s relations with the EU? Postim më i ri. Postim më i vjetër. Abonohu te: Posto komente (Atom). The paprika palinka effect. I'm a recently-repatriated Brit who's now in London after 7 years living around Europe.

An Englishman in New Europe: gusht 2007
http://talesfromneweurope.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
An Englishman in New Europe. E enjte, 30 gusht 2007. Time to put the tabloids in their place. I was delighted to enter the European Commission's homepage today and find the below article which I think is an excellent retort to populist, irresponsible and frankly erroneous tabloid journalism out to have yet another dig at its favourite victim - the EU. Well done! Euromyths – time to set the record straight. The truth behind that tabloid standard – ‘the latest crazy idea from Brussels'. To change the name ...
