After the Joyandet, Blanc and Woerth cases, French President Nicolas Sarkozy is now accused of being given money by the heirs of the L’Oréal fortune when he was mayor of Neuilly and for his presidential campaign in 2007. Are these allegations credible and is there a cover-up? How much trouble is Nicolas Sarkozy in? With the current political storm now clearly about campaign financing, how do you finance politics fairly without breaking the law?
