Not a cause for celebration in my view.

We need more UN-sceptics; too many people, particularly on my side of the Atlantic, have an idealised view the United Nations as some sort of global superparliament embodying the will of the World's people. Of course, what it really is is a slow-moving talking shop, populated in part by the representatives of some very unsavoury regimes.

Yes, it has its role, and we need some sort of global authority. But let's be a little more realistic.
