THE GERMANS HAVE A WORD FOR IT


The French have elected François Hollande as their new president with 51.7% of the votes in an election run-off.  And there will be changes!  Hollande says that austerity will not be the only approach and that he will re-negotiate the French debt repayments.  I wonder if Dutch Frankie remembers the problems that Britain had with the negotiations over the EEC and the De Gaul ‘Non’, well now the tables are turned and its the French who will have trouble with Angela Merkel and the German ‘Nein’.  What goes around comes around.
