Attention with the usage of the word “important”, the more it is used, the less important the issues appear…

Congratulation with your first plenary meeting. Seen from the “theater” seats in the huge Hemicycle, it seemed as if you and the new President Mr Sepi, controlled things well. Sitting up there on the stage, you had a good eye contact to members and staff, and you even changed it to total theater, when you left the stage and looked for and took advice and gave advice to Members and staff, all around the building. I am sure it will be to many more good appearences for you on this center stage of Civil Society live “Theater”. As Jillian van Turnhout also writes about, we all look forward to play our different roles in this serious piece.

Well done Martin on a succesful week for the EESC. It was great to see you up at the top table. As a member of the EESC I am looking forward to the next two years and think our new President, VPs, SG will provide excellent leadership. We are living in extremely interesting and fluid times. We will need to shine the beacon for participatory democracy in Europe. As is often said Leadership counts even more in a crisis. Keep up the great work and I know you are supported by an outstanding team of professional staff.
