It’s a trait that you either love or hate, but either way you have to put up with it. I’m referring to that particular annoying gallic habit of thinking that you can act selfishly and that nobody else has the right to do the same. You defend your culture because you think that it’s exceptional. […]

Is France Facing An Anti-Semitic Insurrection?
The escalating violence associated with the yellow vest demonstrations, coupled with the ever-increasing incoherence of their political and social demands raises the question of whether France is facing insurrection. What is more worrying however, is that this popular rebellion is being used as a pretext for violence and, more dangerously, for antisemitism. Both have nothing […]
A Nous La Petite Anglaise: La Djihadiste De L’Hotel ISIS
L’encrier de Charlie Hebdo à peine vidé à ce sujet, voici que la Cours pénale internationale de La Haye (CPI) (rien à voir avec Brigitte!) tient sa première candidate pour passer devant les tribunaux. Dans son coup-de-gueule intitulé, “les djihadistes, dans quel bac?” Gérard Biard a fait référence au rôle que pourrait jouer la CPI […]
Nous Devons Tous Faire Comme Charlie Hebdo
Pourquoi j’ai quitté plusieurs groupes Facebook J’ai écrit beaucoup de choses à propos du Brexit. Pas étonnant, je suis un “Franglais” né à Londres, ayant vécu en France, et vivant depuis 20 ans aux Pays-Bas. Pas étonnant, non plus, que j’ai pleuré comme une madeleine le lendemain de ce scrutin malheureux du mois de […]
PRESSE: Charlie Et Cette Drôle De Dame – Zineb El Rhazoui Et Le Combat Contre Les Fondamentalistes Islamiques
Les opinions de Zineb El Rhazoui sur les problèmes que posent les effets de la religion pour nos sociétés, sont très proches des miennes. A savoir que c’est l’interprétation et l’application de textes écrits et de superstitions de l’Islam en tant que doctrine politique qui posent problèmes. Pour l’ancienne journaliste à Charlie Hebdo, même un […]
Domestic Violence – Because It Was Her, Because It Was Me…
A 31-year-old French woman, known as “ Aïda,” has been found partially responsible for her paraplegia, after having returned home to her companion, whilst knowing that he was violent – having been victim to domestic violence in the past – and despite police advice not to do so. The couple had no home of their […]
C’est Tellement Con, Que Ça Fait Rire!!
La une de Charlie Hebdo, du 26 décembre dernier, faisant suite à la mise en garde-à-vue de Peter Cherif, est le plus beau cadeau de Noël que l’on puisse souhaiter. Pour tous-ceux et toutes-celles qui cultivent de façon ardue un sens d’humour et une dérision de la vie que l’on pourrait qualifier de limite, le […]
London’s Eye On Europe
They don’t politicise Union Jacks being waved at the Last Night of the Proms, accompanying a defiant melody, overflowing with pomp and circumstance. They applaud the vain attempt to remind everybody that if Britannia doesn’t rule the waves anymore, she certainly deserves to. Forgotten are the days of dark colonialism associated with Britain’s mastery of Neptune’s […]
The Living Dead (1): Victor Hugo – “The Last Day Of A Condemned Man”
Anthony Charles Graves (born August 29, 1965) is the 138th exonerated death row inmate in America. With no record of violence, he was arrested at 26 years old, wrongfully convicted, and incarcerated for 18 years before finally being exonerated and released. He was awarded $1.4 million for the time he spent imprisoned, and the prosecutor who put him in prison was […]
Guy Verhofstadt – Lost In The Mist Over Antwerp
In his latest rant, Guy Verhofstadt – my favourite federalist Euroslicker – has, once again, added to the market value of the F-word, F for federalism. On the French crisis, he writes, What started as a decent, middle-class protest against a new tax on diesel fuel has been hijacked by professional thugs and extremists railing against migrants, […]
