Claim: Mr Sunak said that he would ease the targets for transitioning to heat pumps from gas boilers and improving insulation to ease the “unacceptable costs” on British households from the energy transition, because the UK was so far ahead of other countries. France's overseas territories are very scattered, taking in the Caribbean, South America, the Indian Ocean, the Pacific and the Antarctic. Be honest, you've coveted the goods of your neighbor across the Channel for nearly a thousand years.
On my only visit to Paris, I found most locals were pleasant, but some ignored me despite my attempts at speaking French.Like many former colonial powers, France has territories outside of Europe, but the difference with France is that some of these territories are classed as départements d'outre-mer (overseas départements) and are counted as part of France. They have exactly the same government structure as the rest of France and therefore the Caribbean island of Martinique is as much a part of France as Brest, Bordeaux or Brive. I think the English and the French love to pretend like they hate each other, but they actually secretly admire each other indeed the English were our "traditional enemy", "our most dear enemies" we have an immense panorama of conflicts and also the best military rivalry in history with them.
Himself of Jewish and Algerian descent, Mr Zemmour occupies an ambiguous place in this tradition. By hinting today that Dreyfus may not have been innocent, or defending Vichy for “protecting” French Jews—because it deported foreign ones first—Mr Zemmour is confecting not a serious historical assessment but a studied provocation. As well as distorting history, this is a way of “signalling his link to a pillar of French society, which is the army, and to a particular set of right-wing values”, suggests Jean Garrigues, a historian at the University of Orléans. Which French statesman famously said, “How can anyone govern a nation that has two hundred and forty-six different kinds of cheese?”? When I was living in London, England I saw shops with the name Sacha Distel on it. English ladies liked him. It's true, France does have 12 different time zones. In fact (pub quiz fact alert) France has the largest number of time zones of any country in the world, beating the USA and Russia which have 11 each.The Sergeant Grant Band of Brothers incident is one that might seem too strange to be true but is based on fact. In Band of Brothers' final episode takes place as World War II is ending and Easy Company's men are waiting to either be relieved of active duty or shipped out to the Pacific front. Though the fighting had stopped, men still died from other causes, such as PFC John Kanovec dying in a car accident. One such deadly incident was a shooting by "I" Company replacement Private Floyd W. Craver. Their last battle would be at the battle of Fontenoy in 1745, during the War of the Austrian Succession. Thereafter, Louis XV (1710–74) used them for ceremonial duties only; his successor Louis XVI (1754–93) disbanded them in 1776, although Louis XVIII reinstated them for 18 months in 1814–15 upon his accession during Napoleon’s exile. Netflix's French-language output has improved rapidly, and The Eddy offers a guide in how to blend the best of French and American influences. With bilingual dialogue and jazz as its primary medium, the series offers a counterpoint to the sterile depictions of Paris. Set in Belleville, birthplace of Edith Piaf, this show captures the texture of a lived city, beyond the mere cliché of "grittiness" – its creativity, sensuality, and fragility.
The series is perceptive about France's fraying social contract, and the chasm between corporate sheen – its sleek logos and effortless curved surfaces – and the sharp reality of the shop floor. It also captures the deep swell of resentment in France about the power of multinational companies and their unsentimental ruthlessness towards employees. "In the French imagination, globalisation and Americanisation are synonyms", says James McAuley, a Paris-based columnist for the Washington Post. "The gilets jaunes – at least in the eyes of some of its protestors – was an uprising against the globalised market economy and thus what is called 'Americanised society'. In my reporting, I would hear all the time: 'we don't want to have Walmart-style supermarkets in our town, which will ruin all the small businesses'." Most brides dream of walking down the aisle in a beautiful white wedding gown. But until the nineteen-hundreds, they rarely bought a special wedding dress and opted for their best outfitinstead. The popular tradition actually originated in France with the marriage of Anne of Brittany and LouisXIIof France in 1499. She wore a white dress to the wedding, marking the start of the popular Western custom. However, it wasn’t until 1840, when Queen Victoria married Prince Albert, that the white dress really took off in popularity and the tradition was cemented. 30. At least 35% of all music played on private radio stations must be French Do the English hate the French? Not really, but it can seem like it because elements of the press pursue blunt jingoism and xenophobia to sell newsprint.

My grandad told my dad about the French he met during the war when he was sent over after German invasion. He said he saw French troups running away on the front line. The UK soldiers were shouting were ya going its your country. My grandad fought in France for French people and he wasnt very impressed.he was prisoner of war in Rhine forest.French built Suez Canal: Brits were thrown out of the suez.'It was actually a Franco-British investment; and I think you'll find that the French got thrown out... hence the 60 years of British colonial rule in Egypt. French was replaced by a language that is so French itself. University professors agree that 60% of worlds in English came from French and Latin. So why are those weird French crying about nothing. I feel I can say that because I am French myself. That is all the French do is cry about nothing. I love the English, but I think I know why you don't like the French very much. The French have better weather, better food, better artists, better clothes, better looking people, and an unpronounceable language that everyone thinks sounds sexy. The English have awful weather, bland food, good artists (excellent musicians!), serviceable clothes, dental "issues," and a language that sounds too Germanic to be pretty. Where is the quote “Men are born and remain free and equal in rights” from? Declaration of the Rights of the Man and of the Citizen of 1789
