FRENCH PAPERS, TUESDAY, 28th SEPT. 2010: After former French Justice Minister Rachida Dati confused the words ‘fellatio’ and ‘inflation’, France Soir looks at similar slip ups in the French political world. Elsewhere, a new immigration law is to be discussed in parliament today. Libération’s editorial is largely critical of the proposed legislation. Also, two big football matches in the Champions League pit French sides Auxerre and Marseille against Real Madrid and Chelsea.

Air France: over-staffing and a jackpot bonus

The French press looks at the latest bad news for the economy. Air France is restructuring and layoffs are certain. Libération asks: what can the new left-wing government do?

'How do I go back'?

by Charles Smyth - 28/09/2010 - 11:48

The Bamako returnees now have a better idea about how badly run Mali is, and the challenge that must be met by them, their fellow countrymen, and the leadership they chose and who get to swan around Paris, in style, at their expense. As for Rachida Dati: It would seem that she's not such a cunning linguist, after all :-)
