Cathy throws in the towel
(BRUSSELS2/Super exclusive) Why wasn't Cathy Ashton in the family photo at the London summit? We must resolve to give the explanation. B2 had promised to keep the matter as discreet as possible. But we have a hard time keeping quiet. The High Representative was, in fact, with David Cameron for a little “explanation”, face to face. Does the British commissioner represent the interests of the Kingdom well? That's the question. Between the two, the tone rose. It is a habit. The High Representative, exasperated by the attitude of the British Prime Minister, criticized him pell-mell for not having supported him against Sarkozy at the European summit in March then for not wanting to renew his Eurostar subscription and allegedly threatened to return to sit on the House of Lords. Clearly, she resigned from the post of commissioner. “Chiche” David would have replied (my source is not very sure about the word used: it could be London slang). Now it remains to find a replacement. If you know someone please write: 10 Downing Street, London, SW1A 2AA You can try posting a tweet to William Hague (@WilliamJHague), he will get the message across (*).
