Re: Status quo vs Change (none / 1)
Not often I disagree with you, TG, but I think you're calling this one wrong. At this stage, unless there is some dramatic new development, it looks very much as if the government will have to back down.

This morning's poll results show 68% of the French are against the CPE (up from 55% a week ago), and 63% support the students.

The "reactionary" spin you outline may work outside France, but it doesn't seem to take hold at all within.

Re: Status quo vs Change (none / 0)
You make the perfect point.  Those of us languishing in the brainwashed malaise of America! 2006 can only dream of such clarity in the public discourse.  What I am enjoying watching unfold in Paris is quite literaly never going to happen out here.
