German predominance is not all-encompassing. In foreign affairs and military matters, for instance, France and Britain still play a much bigger role. But across a large swathe of European policy, Germany has become much more than a first among equals.
Zanny Minton Beddoes


Former West Germany was a semi-sovereign political pygmy, protected by America’s military might and with barely any foreign policy of its own. As a result, the country has no machinery or tradition of strategic thinking, and most Germans are loth to see their government take the lead.

Famous Quotes by Zanny Minton Beddoes

I think Britain’s economy has done extremely well from having the influx of talented people from around the world and from having an influx of people from the rest of the European Union. It’s both evidence of how strong the British economy was – that’s what drew people in – but it’s also part of what’s making the British economy work.

It’s very important to say that what I mean when I say ‘liberal’ is liberal in the 19th-century British sense. Pro-market, pro-individual, freedom, pro-openness. Not the American sense.

Zanny Minton Beddoes

There are a lot of people who are moving from unemployment to disability rolls, and there are a lot of people who have been out of work for a long time who are unable to get jobs. And I think that from a long-term perspective, this is not just a human tragedy, but it’s going to be a potentially big hit on the economy in the future.

Top Zanny Minton Beddoes Quotes And Sayings

Governments need to lay out a credible path to reducing their deficits in the medium term, but without excessively enfeebling an already weak recovery. That means raising retirement ages and overhauling pensions; putting in place the budget rules and institutions that will curb future profligacy; and favoring spending cuts over tax increases.
Zanny Minton Beddoes

Europe’s budget plans are better designed: countries from France to Greece are raising retirement ages; others, from Britain to Germany, have created new organizations and rules to encourage fiscal probity. But Europe risks overkill.

Classic English liberalism of the sort that ‘The Economist’ was founded to champion and still espouses is about open societies and free markets.
Zanny Minton Beddoes

Firstly, I think the values that underpin all liberals, frankly – classical liberals, all liberals – of respect for the individual and freedom are worth fighting for.
