one late night in 1996; parliament.

[ CDP has been negotiating the new EU regulations of which Parliament has been held out prospects for months now and tonight is the final stretch. Naturally, it's not a simple matter of yes and no, Luxembourg has been deeply invested in the Union since its birth, but some of the regulations will have a severe impact on tax-deductions for the multi-national corporations working within their borders and if nothing else, they want their opportunities to remain what they've always been. It is the Luxembourgian way.

Passing by Jean Louis' office, Philippe forces himself to a slow halt, looking into the small cube of a working space that his personally appointed (and very young) spokesman has transformed into a neat collection of paper stacks, it looks almost like an archive at a library. Very impressive. He smiles, taps his knuckles two times against the wooden frame of the door to announce himself. ]


Everyone else has gone home for the night, Jean Louis. Oughtn't you do the same, perhaps?
