I Wish I Were French

Or, for the younger readers, ‘I Wish I Was French’.

Why? Is it the ability to not give a damn and shrug your shoulders? No, it’s because they are a bunch of bolshy buggers who, rather than sit and complain or – as in my case – blog about something, get up and demonstrate about things instead.

So when their Government introduce reforms that will affect their lives and livelihood, the French bring the country to its knees whilst we tut-tut and comment on the BBC News web site. Funny how student loans brought merely a murmur here but added to the strikes and marches there.
