Interestingly enough the French usually reserve their riots for their
own government and have a pretty good record of making their
government change it's policy this way.

I wasn't thinking the anger of the French people would be directed at the
UK.

Why ever not, it has been for the last thousand years or so.

I'm afraid we just don't get on.

Which is odd, because I like the place and I like the food. I even like
the people outside the big cities.

However the French in the big cities are a ghastly bunch, although I think
they hate their own provincials more than they hate the Brits...
