The Telegraph reports that the European Commission is facing pressure to overhaul the staffing regulations of the EU’s diplomatic service, the EEAS, after it emerged that generous holiday entitlements topped up by flexitime mean that EU diplomats can rack up to 17 weeks of holiday per year, leaving embassies and delegations empty for "many months".
So 5 weeks annually more than teachers most of whom actually toil in a highly-powered, stressful profession, huh?
