This item was covered on the Morning Ireland programme on RTE radio 1. I think they do podcasts? I must say it did not suprise me that much that the EU is forcing workers to work longer hours. Also Sarkozy's wish to undermine the 35 hour week was covered in a number of places including the daily mail. you can get this information using google etc.

Sarko has another problem after todays No vote to the lisbon treaty vote in Ireland. The frency and eu elites have wanted to roll back the 35 hour week for the last 10 years now I suppose they are afraid some of the more tame Trade union leaders in other eu countries might start agitating for it? I dont think they need to worry but they dont like the example being set about a shorter working week all the same.

In Libération newspaper I red he is the first président of a no-Eu ! :-p)
Sarko has other problems ! He is toc- toc inside his head ! ;-)

He has got no honnor and is able to do every thing to get what he wants. It is a lawyer(avocado) rather of the roquet kind(genre) which hangs on(collides) the customer. :-) [sentence translated with reverso.net]

For example, he is able to say white and do the contrary in front of every body that is looking at him.
Or some young person stunned of his government, tells a bullshit and guard dogs tell that it was a bad interpretation from people. Never from minister. It's people that has not understand, of course.

It's like this I have heard (?Devedjian ?) spoken about idea to move limite of 35 hours.

Few hours after, somebody else saying something like "it is not question to modify limite of 35 hours". Sarko, I think.

It is of the clown(puppet theater), every day for one year. [line from reverso.net]

To day, Sarko has a beautiful other occupation, good to make crying all the Planet : Well-being of the old persons.

At TV, we saw him in an old people's home, but not a word about Treaty, EU, your country... His wife was in first page in a disk in a jet-set newspaper, for a new disk or something like this. They are clownes. French people accepts this because there is saturation of the information.

For the ones that speak french, here's this http://contrejournal.blogs.liberation.fr/mon_weblog/200...#more

Good night, every body. It was a day full of feelings! :-)
And Thanks again !
