Intellectuals

Intellectuals who joined the Grand coalition.....were bitterly disillusioned when they realised that the coalition had no confidence in them, despite the many sacrifices they had made for the coalition. Have they been too demanding? Have they asked to be made ministers or ambassadors? No, they haven't. The majority of the intellectuals are not ambitious and would willingly give these positions to politicians and party members. They simply wish to give the benefit of their qualifications and experience to the services of the people, and to safeguard their honour and freedom of thought which they believe to be essential to the dignity of the intellectual.
