Well everything in french is misrepresented due to the inaccuracy of basic translation. In French we use c'est (it is) to describe anybody when in English that would be (he or she). That has always been so. When you read a Macron speech you are not getting what he said but the translator's version which is often alarmingly different. This sounds like french dottiness but prefer to investigate rather than jump in.

France fell years ago (true to form). The place is a s***hole, full of radicals who murder them without challenge, whilst the natives concern themselves with what's important: Brick the tunnel up and leave them to it. GC stands for good call.

A bit ironic since all French words are either masculine or feminine. Perhaps they want to simplify their grammar.

My frigging blood pressure is going through the roof again. Can you believe these people! All of Western society is obsessed with pandering to minorities irrespective of the effect it will have on wider society. We should all ask ourselves who is driving this movement and why.

The roads are less busy and it doesn't feel crowded. It is all the things that we are trying to destroy in Britain. However, with immigration set to reach unimaginable levels in the next couple of centuries, nowhere in Europe will be safe.
