Did anything dawn on Eamon Gilmore while in Berlin yesterday?
German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle and SPD chancellor candidate Peer Steinbrück managed to speak in perfect English to the Irish Foreign Minister.
How different it would be if Mr Gilmore spoke German, even a few words.
And this Government is doing nothing to help improve the teaching of German in our schools.
Bet more state money was spent teaching English and German to both Guido Westerwelle and Peer Steinbrück than is spent teaching German and English to Irish school children.
