Deimos Posted January 9, 2008 Share Posted January 9, 2008 Glad to see he is at last getting down to sorting out the real problems in France.Very astute of him to notice that things like unemployment, balance of payments, inflation, riots, etc. are trivial compared to the problems surrounding adverts on public TV.
