Re: Celebrity Royal to lead the French left to Pre (none / 0)

Makes you wonder how many in the PS have actually read the original article in the FT and are not merely reacting to Le Monde's asking them something like "what do you think of Royal's praise of Blair?".

Any hope of a link to Royal's original article online?

My bad. I actually undestood this

L'hommage rendu par Ségolène Royal à Tony Blair, dans le Financial Times du 2 février

to mean she had written an op-ed or something, which was almost absurd on its face, but still... It's Friday.

The difference between "vante le blairisme" and "rend hommage à Tony Blair" is really thin.
Means the same, basically.

In any case it's a misrepresentation of what she said... But if you assume Le Monde wants to torpedo the PS's front-runner it makes a lot of sense. Now she'll have to spend time reassuring PS members that she's not a Blairite instead of debating the other candidates.

What I mean is that I had found the article you link, but I thought I was searching for something else unsuccessfully.
