    Actually, FF greatest triumph is to keep FG and Labour out of single party government
    First they ignore me, then they ridicule me, then they fight me. Then I win

    Jesus, are you still here? Your name being associated with FF is a disgrace to French animation, by the by.

    You say this as if it was a good thing.

    Congrats, you really brought all the maggots here out with this post, they even risked the light of day!

    If she had have spoken up, she would have compromised her position as president and then would have lost her job. Someone else would have taken her place. Honest people generally don't go into politics. Too many lazy careerists see it as a job for life. Just look at the disgusting pensions that former ministers are receiving. Actually makes me very, very angry.
    There's probably no god. Now, stop worrying and enjoy your life.
