Ian will never turn down a gift horse in the mouth to prolong any negotiations while they continue to secretly build up their military nuclear and ballistic programme.

we'll have at least one great thing accomplished.

PLANET. Best news I've heard all day.

Could the EU find anyone worse than Ashton to replace her? It's the EU. I'm betting they can.

sycophant than she - to keep the Iranians in the talks and a bigger illusionist to make the talks appear to be going somewhere... EU..Is it too much to ask to spare us from such a hideous countenance next time around. Thank you in advance.

good riddance - a more hopeless person would have been hard to find.

She is the worset EU chief ever and to look at her one can get sick.

The UN can use as a door stopper ,that's all she's worth the Anti-Semite.

While she was "working" Ashton received a $500,000 annual salary (tax free). Now that she is leaving, for the next three years she will get a $275,000 annual salary (tax free) for NOT "working". When she reaches retirement in 2021, she will get an annual $100,000 annual pension (tax free). Of course, there is nothing preventing her from getting other work to supplement her income. I wonder if the suffering European citizens (aka suckers) are glad that they subsidized Ashton so she could eat shrimp cocktails and bash the Jews.

ashton was a typical marxist, pro-muslim mediocrity. she will not be missed. unfortunately, if the eu can find someone more pro-muslim and more mediocre, they will do so.

...start in her own exclusive line of beauty products. Advert tag line is thought to be: "It can do for you, ...what it has done for me". "Try my two state moisturizer". "Beauty IS only skin deep."

Nothing more mediocre than Catherine Ashton. Perhaps a more dynamic and intelligent person not committed to a bogus leftist perspective heading the EU might insure the security and chances of survival of western Europe.

All those anti Jewish idiots are. But she tops them all along with that Lebanese reporter, Helen Thomas who departed Earth not long ago. I think they are a match from way down under.

she has done absolutely nothing in that position, and had no intention of doing anything. she played along with the ayatollah to buy all the time he needs to develop a deliverable nuke. then tell the world; it is too late for action. a.k.a north korea.

she never had a clue a fully biased lefty from way back the sooner she goes the better for the us and the world her resume is pathetic

so it really doesn't matter what it does. the EU with its bagsful of incompetent political appointees has shown itself unfit to deal with any world problem... and in fact has increasingly made this world a more dangerous place in which to be.

Maybe the Queen offered her a better position, you never know...after all, she and Margaret Tatcher have something in common, both of them acts like ladies but they think like mans. Ps: I bet Israel would love Ashton as British Prime Minister lol,,, funny perspective

Really......I'm pretty damn sure your Golda Meier was the fugliest thing ever born.......when she opened her mouth cockroaches perished

It's good Ashton is disappearing because she is not fit to represent 28 European countries. Ashton is made of words with no actions. Many criminal acts and disrespecting of the International Laws took place in the Middle East and she took no action. I hope a tough person will be appointed and takes instant action against any country that violates International Laws.
