'People are sick of the political class, sick of the banks, sick of the idea that some people are always getting protected and others are left behind.'
Gayle Allard, an economist at Instituto
de Empresa Business School in Madrid.,
on the release today of a Transatlantic
Trends survey by the German Marshall
Fund of the US that found "two continents
dissatisfied with their government's
handling of the economy, underlined by a
sense of injustice, and so bogged down
by economic worries that they are turning
inwards, especially when it comes to
crisis in Syria."
