tweedledum & tweedledee

category international | eu | other press author Thursday November 18, 2004 13:11author by iosaf merrovinginvanjan Report this post to the editors

Ahem.... Yesterday President Chirac met with Bill Gates a private US citizen.

Tomorrow President Chirac visits the UK for two days most british and french mainstream media organs look at the relationship between the two EU members with nuclear capability.

Chirac has confirmed that even though Blair is "supine" (one of three positions in which the body is laid flat upon the ground the others being prostrate and prone) in it's attitude to Washington, he still likes Mr Blair and has a photo of his young son Leo.
The same Leo who "someone" shopped for being drunk and disorderly years ago on Whitehall after a RTS! event.

Here are some other important things you should know-

France has more nukes than the UK.
France's nukes are independent of NATO/ OTAN whereas the UK must ask the USA to nuke someone.
Neither France nor the UK have used their nukes other than in perfectly harmless underground, overground testing which left areas of both Indian and Pacific oceans filled with wondrous new life.
France has faster and better trains than the UK.
France has a higher standard of living than the UK.
France is a republic with it's fifth constitution wheras the UK is a monarchy without a written constitution.
France helped us declare a republic in 1798.
the UK helped us declare a union in 1801.
France is very racist.
the UK is very racist.
Ireland is more racist than either France or the UK.-
You can't wear a veil, kippa or bloody big cross to a public school in France.
You can't get into a public school in the UK without paying at least 12,000stg school fees.
France destroyed the airforce of a former colony in th last week in the words of it's dictator "destroying the government advantage over insurgents in half an hour".
the UK is doing its best to assist the USA help democracy emerge in Iraq.
France speaks French and no-one bothers to learn english.
the UK speaks english, welsh and gaelic and no-one bothers to learn maths.
France is about the size of Iraq.
the UK is about the size of Syria.
The motto of France is "liberty equality fraternity"
The motto of the UK is "God is my right".
God is english.
the church is french.
the UK has poisonous food but good whisky.
France has excellent food, but only qualified linguists can order it in restaurants.
The Americans don't like either the British or the French but they prefer the Brits.
The French don't like either the Brits or the Yanks but they prefer the Brits.
The French and the Brits wanted to take on Nassar but the Yanks said no.
Both the French and the Brits aren't imperialists anymore, they just have long standing cultural and geo-political responsibilities.
