ONE COMMON FACT ABOUT MOST EUROPEAN LEADERS WILL CHILL YOU TO THE CORE

One noteworthy reality about Europe’s current political leadership is summarised here by Phil Lawler:

“• Macron, the newly elected French president, has no children.

• German chancellor Angela Merkel has no children.

• British prime minister Theresa May has no children.

• Italian prime minister Paolo Gentiloni has no children.

• Holland’s Mark Rutte,

• Sweden’s Stefan Löfven,

• Luxembourg’s Xavier Bettel,

• Scotland’s Nicola Sturgeon—all have no children.

• Jean-Claude Juncker, president of the European Commission, has no children.

“So a grossly disproportionate number of the people making decisions about Europe’s future have no direct personal stake in that future.”
