In the Groan today:

Tony Blair and Jacques
Chirac are in danger of "destroying" Europe after an Anglo-French
bust-up led to the collapse of negotiations on the EU budget, said Jose
Manuel Barroso, the president of the European commission.

Really? Two pissant politicians squabbling over 0.4 % of the total income of the continent is going to destroy a geographic area of four million sixty five thousand nine hundred and forty five square miles?

Get a grip Joe, get a grip Old Boy.
