So old Johnny Foreigner Juncker says “If you are sitting in the bar and you are ordering 28 beers and then suddenly some of your colleagues are leaving without paying, that is not feasible. They have to pay. They have to pay.”

And so what does that pipsqueak IDS respond
“I think Mr Juncker knows a little bit more about the bar than many of us do.”

I am not entirely sure that this type of banter is going to advance our position!
