chorus
us
Talking about health, this report again echoes the unending liberal chorus: let's privatize social security. Stadig vedrørende sundhed genfinder man det evige liberale omkvæd i betænkningen: privatisering af den sociale sikringsordning. That was the key word, the chorus which meant, indeed, that the elections were seen as the end of a political crisis. Det var det ord, der gik igen, og det omkvæd, som faktisk betød, at valget blev betragtet som enden på en politisk krise. Most people are familiar with the chorus of the anthem 'Rule Britannia', but people sometimes get one word fundamentally wrong. De fleste kender omkvædet til sangen "Rule Britannia", men får nogle gange ét ord helt galt.

refrain
us
The 'ever more' refrain of a number of my fellow Members is too glib a response. "Mere og mere"omkvædet, som nogle af mine kolleger har sunget, er et for overfladisk svar. So, is the common refrain that we must learn the lessons of this economic crisis genuine? Så er det fælles omkvæd, vi hører om, at vi må lære af denne økonomiske krise, oprigtigt ment? For some years now we have been hearing the constant refrain that governance must be improved. Vi har i de seneste år konstant hørt det omkvæd, at forvaltningen skal forbedres.
