The French President has a girlfriend and telling her that she should "know her place". For she has broken a fake royal vow that is supposed to bind all political spouses in France: act like the Queen of England and stay out of politics. The pack of socialist dinosaurs, wreathed in the hypocrisy of positive feminism until, god forbid, la femme decide to speak. Then we have a Gallic outbreak of misogyny.
Socialists have form on this, especially French ones. But the criticism and lazy assumptions over the desire of President Hollande's partner to support the opponent of his former girlfriend and mother of his four children in an election is telling. Must be jealousy as no other motive can be imagined...
Would it not be pleasing and right if the partner of an elected politician states her own mind, keeps her own life and isn't boxed into a treadmill of photo opportunities masquerading as good works.
