For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I think Chirac is looking to compete with Bush for being the most out of touch leader on the planet, skilled only in making daft statements. The food in the UK has moved on, so should Chirac. Statements like this from a Pro European don't make sense. He's pro the advancement of Europe, providing everything's French of course! What is British food these days anyway?
60 years ago his country was all but lost until a brave and rather small country like the UK decided to almost commit suicide to save them and ourselves.
You would think that as the number one ambassador for his country the president of france would actually show a great deal of respect for the people of this nation, even if he doesnt agree with the politics.
His comments on our cuisine and saying all we are good for is BSE is nothing to do with rebates or EU or anything, it is just a pathetic jibe at the british people he so hates
dont get me wrong, i dont think the french should be at our feet or anything like that, they are allowed to disagree with things about us and live there own lives without owing us anything, but a little respect and courtesy (as opposed to nasty remarks and tittle tattle) is very little to ask of anyone!
Even Bush in an interview yesterday said he wouldnt agree to anything and his relationship with us isnt a quid pro quo thing, but he does respect us and glad of what we helped with in iraq.
That is a difference of opinion with a bit of political back slapping as way of respect, might seem a bit two faced at times but at least its there, unlike with the french!
Thanks, WoWo, for providing another fine example of childish insulting comment about another country.
Chirac is a kid. He proved it many times, especially with the way he lies, regardless of the fact that his lies are obvious to most of the public. He is just like a kid who denies stealing sweets although he was seen doing it. No wonder he has such a schoolyard humour. Next time, he'll say some dumb joke about the belgian...
"Nothing wrong with that ",I hear you say , I agree absolutley,but lager with Rick Stein cooked Lobster???
The man's a real epicure innit.
Au revoir, Jimbo
