COMFORT MEASURES:

Brown warns EU: 'You must follow Britain's example' (JAMES KIRKUP, 6/23/05, The Scotsman)

GORDON Brown last night delivered Britain's economic ultimatum to other European Union nations: reform or die.

The blunt call for more and faster moves to open up the moribund European economy came even as Tony Blair was trying to restore ties strained by his strident calls to overhaul the entire EU budget.


Economic reform would slow the pace at which they're dying, but unlessthey deal with their secularization problem they're still terminal.
