"I'm really hungry I need to eat!" He knows me and I know him from my frequent travels. There are more and more every day. Last time we saw each other I bought him a sport drink but this time I said next time.
It's difficult to see where we are now compared to when I started my working life in the late 1980's. We have dropped to a low point which is helping to feed rage, resentment and despair. It is also feeding political right-leaning movements which purport to have all the answers.
The EU parliament recently chastised Victor Orban for running an authoritarian style regime which Western Europe rightfully finds extremely distasteful. It is the same playbook the Trump GOP proposes to espouse should they gain power in a few days.
Short sightedness got us here and it will take a considerable time to get us out.
