Slaves or masters?
MARCUS TULLIUS CICERO (106-43 BC) hit the nail on the head when he commented: “What happens to any state which has permanent staff of officials? They begin as our servants and end up imagining themselves our masters .”
Could this apply to our own situation in Westminster and Brussels ?
