Have you ever been to a birthday party where there isn't someone who doesn't try and ruin the fun for everyone else? I certainly haven't. Well the European Union's 50th birthday celebration is no exception. Who is the spoilsport you ask?
No other than his Holiness and the Bishop of Rome Pope Pius the whatever. He is angry that EU didn't boast of its Christian origins in its birthday communiqué and also that European women aren't breeding fast enough for his liking. There is one problem though in his statement on the European birth rate. Which EU countries have the lowest birth rates? It is the predominately Catholic countries Italy, Poland and Spain. I reckon he'd best sort out his own folks first before lecturing the rest of us, don't you?
