Her appeal to Corsican values was merely a kind of candy-coating her unchanged stance on the topic. She only lauded them to blast back Corsican nationalism full-speed. The remembrance of her father forced to stand on a plastic chair in Bastia airport because he couldn't go anywhere else must have g...

That's why I wrote "PR mode". On a more serious note, his going against the PC will on that topic and calling Diwan association "sectarian types" clearly underline he has issues about it. On that topic, is it true that Marine got a relatively "warm" welcome in Corsica, and that the new FN is more s...

Absolutely agree. France is next and the politicians are lying about how bad it really is. As to your second point, yes, absolutely we (as Austrians) would be dependent on Berlin, but in the decades before the €, Austria had successfully tied its currency to the DM, so for us it is something we kno...

Still thinking about that horrible 2002 results so will vote for Flamby (Mou du genou je l'appelle moi !), twice... I'm a lefty, from a lefty family, in a lefty land . But this won't be by conviction. Eva Joly seems to me the more honest of the band, Flamby the better to get rid of Naboléon so... A...

This is true, unfortunately. Pity they feel the state is the only way forward though. Because it is not. I agree it is not and that is the tragedy. If our country was less centralized then there would have been a lot of counterpowers at a more local level to stop the ravages of globalization and in...

The last months have radically changed my mind from having followed the behaviour by the ECB and states, the retroactive changes and collective action clauses, with neither austerity nor spending programmes able to drag us out of this mess. And be warned, we are only at the beginning. This will yet...

There is a secret about grooming props , can anyone enlighten me on this? very often you get promising youngsters who never mature properly and are forgotten (best example of this being Menkarska, but there's plenty of others and I am wondering if Barcella is not another one), and then you have prop...

let me think... GPU, Flamby et le Béarnais?

Looks like a classic close 2nd run Hollande-Sarkozy. Here's hoping its Hollande winning, who goes ape-shit against the Germans and accelerates the €-demise. I'm sick and tired of this shit. Let's end it sooner than later . :o how many times have you argued the opposite when I was calling for its de...

Christophe Guilluy, a good read.

McAlistair is injured and might not be ready for saturday (usual mind trick or reality ?) Him and Burgess were said to have minor injuries, I don't know more. Dusautoir was included in the back line play this week end , and Bouilhou took on the role when Dusautoir went off. I'm not totally convince...

Main- She forgot she's not a judge anymore and cannot decide for others. Looks like she now loses her balance.

Elect French mafia capo: that's actually a good one, good reflection of what this is all about.

I'll be watching with interest the selection for Edinburgh. The right thing is NOT to take them on in a wide, fast game but to squeeze them to death using fwd power. Don't worry, Novès knows this. It is also quite striking that ST's asset is more and more in its forwards rather than its backs. I th...

Paris try was definitely not valid, a Parisian (Smith ?) is in the defence line interfering with Doussain. As it happened in the 5 meter, the ref has plenty of time to review the incident and made the correct call as the interference clearly caused the gap used. Refs had indeed all the time to view...

Guitou has made the executive decision to pull out of the SF clash. Servat, Steenkamp, Johnston, Poitrenaud, Burgess and Mc Alister won't make the trip to Paris. Yep, not surprising. SF on a roll, battling for qualification, very tough to beat + Edimburgh coming right after. But that means we will ...

Well done UBB, they attack, they play very well around their SH, they deserved to win and deserve to remain int eh T14 IMO. It is getting worrying for ST, the 6N was a little bit too much for an over-extended side this season. Our schedule is very tough, 3 away games in a row. The Edimburgh game wil...
