FRANCOIS Hollande was left picking up the pieces after France was sent into a state of shock as his labour minister described the nation as "totally bankrupt".

Michel Sapin was left red-faced after revealing the potential state of the French economy and leaving the French public to question Mr Hollande's policy.

Speaking during a radio interview, he said: "There is a state but it is a totally bankrupt state. That is why we had to put a deficit reduction plan in place, and nothing should make us turn away from that objective."

France is currently attempting to cut spending by £51.5billion over the next five years.

Since Socialist (ie LOONY !) Francois Hollande came to power, he has imposed his 'anti-rich' policies onto France provoking the country's rich entrepreneurs to leave the country.

where have we heard this claptrap before ???...why from you of course !

the idea that a nation is "bankrupt" after just 8 months of a new government.

Earth to ITK : France has been governed by a Conservative government for over 10 years.

Back to the Economic drawing board for you and to kindergarten for some history lessons.

Its really funny, Hedda-tas, how you espouse loony policies all the time but then when something happens that you dont like (New Labour !) deny all knowledge and support !

"New Labour" were nothing to do with Labour !!! (according to you repeatedly) - even though they ran the Labour party and were elected by Labour members and supporters.

France elected a loony politician .... he went on a Silliand Balls-Up "spend,spend,spend" ..... after months it has gone over the edge.

FACT (whether you like it or not LOL !)

and if you are going to quote from the Express do it properly instead of cherry picking what suits you....

"France's finance minister, Pierre Moscovici attempted to play down the comments made by Mr Sapin.
He said: "France is a really solvent country. France is a really credible country, France is a country that is starting to recover."

and as I have a few French friends who are in the antique business I asked them some weeks ago whether their new government was wrecking their lives and they said life was no different, they weren't leaving the country because some fat actor was, they knew no-one who was because in reality (and a state ITK has never visited) 99% of 'entrepreneurs" can't leave if they still want to conduct business at home.

And they had never heard of Jimmy Savile to boot.
