De l'autre côté de la Manche
The Independent, 20 octobre 2010 :
"Judging by the 70 per cent of people who oppose the pension reform, Mr Sarkozy's drive to mess with, and change, France's mind-set has been a total failure.
Whose fault is that? Mostly it is Mr Sarkozy's fault. There was a mood for real change in the country after his election in May 2007. But this has been frittered away by the President on a series of half-hearted and disconnected reforms which have often seemed to favour the rich. Having promised the French a government that would be all about Vous, he has delivered a presidency which has often been about Moi."
