EU commissioner’s priorities challenged

EU commissioner Charlie McCreevy has been extolling unfettered free-market enterprise.

As a European commissioner, I would have thought he would be better off showing less bias towards the rich and the movers-and-shakers, although I suppose when you are dining with them in their ivory towers you are inclined to be somewhat compromised.

I can assure Mr McCreevy the vast majority of the world’s population is made up of the poor, the homeless and the sick.

He would be well advised to laud their virtues rather than those of his friends in high places.
