French letter
So we see elected another far-right pretend populist, whose first claim on winning the election is that he's a uniter, not a divider. The French working class have decided that having someone in power who hates beurs as much as they do is fair recompense for the shafting they're going to get. It's to be hoped he has his sorry arse booted out before he can do too much damage to France's social system and hand too much of its wealth to the already rich. Why people vote for people who straight out despise them is a mystery to me. It never occurs to them as they find themselves struggling to make ends meet five years down the track that the reason their real wages have fallen, they can't get a doctor and their mortgage seems to be crushing them is that they elected a corporatist who made it his business to fuck them hard.The first to congratulate Sarko were, of course, Blair and Bush. They recognise their own when they see it.
