'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."
