The Sarkozy Effect & Proletarian Unity

category international | politics / elections | news report author Monday May 07, 2007 11:39author by scorchio Report this post to the editors

Two days ago no-one accused Segolene Royal of scare-tactics, dirty electioneering, or any kind of pre-Uachtaran vulgarity when she remarked that riots would greet a Sarkozy victory.

Accordingly 3,000 riot cops were deployed in central Paris. All the riots where kids burned cars before were in the periphery. To the relief of the establishment the anger didn't leave the ugly quarters.

Then Sarkozy won. Overall on 85% of electorate with 50.19%. In posh central 16ème arrondissement where he will now live "in a certain insecurity" he got 80.81% but out in ugliesville 20ème arrondissement Paris he only got 35.37%.

What was ugliesville to do? Burn their buses and be ignored again?
Bingo! it took 3 years or was it 40? to riot the centre of Paris
Bingo! it took 3 years or was it 40? to riot the centre of Paris

The number of burned cars "voiture brulé" (as we say in French the langauge of the Alexandrine) reached the total last seen on the 14th of July 2006 which was French national day.....for all the French.

In total 367 cars have been sent to automobile heaven and 270 people have been arrested.
136 people were arrested outside of Paris, 88 in the greater Parisien area and only 46 in central posh Paris.

Obviously there are lessons to be learnt. It's easier to escape the cops in central posh Paris. Not that such a thought ought interest the readers of Indymedia Ireland who since their election fever began have clocked up "love Garda" references all over the site. Observe the young slightly effete Garda who most certainly uses mousturiser being our friend and escorting out a US consul -

Let the Irish of all political classes be re-assured - their underclass haven't got such rage together yet, they still need something like a "love Ulster" march to get them going. But we will work on instilling a proper sense of underclass "racailles" united Irish proletarian rage in them.

Don't you worry.
Nous sommes touts de racailles.
= we are all scum. really we are. Just too many of us got uppity about it.

& finally for those who would like to think Scorchio (iosaf) did his best to save the bad cars from Nihilist Automobile Hell the article "Saving the V republic" which brought you through it all over a year. How an unelected prime minister covered the largest financial scandal in European and allowed a once admirable society go completely to the dogs & then the dog got elected.
