    Take a look at this page, and that'll help answer the question.

      It is quite deliberate like lots of things he may say or do that seem silly. It makes the french annoyed because they hate franglais and if they start screaming about that too It makes them look even worse than their tantrum already made them
      Also ordinary people can relate to it and like the idea of having a dig at the French. He is playing to the ordinary voter.

        He probably is, and he really should have more than enough on his plate right now than be doing that.

            A friend on Sunday was queuing at Asda ,the lady just in front of him filled up her car within 30 seconds, he was on the opposite side of the pump and could hear the noise the pump makes when it detects the fill level, he heard it twice ,reckons she'd got about 3.50 into the car , so happy days

              It's the French who use 'Franglais' in the first place.

                      Anyone know of any diesel in north Cardiff? Don’t have a lot of fuel left so can’t drive around trying stations. Have tried phoning the local petrol stations but they’re not answering.

                          Thats not what I said. I said all governments are caught on the hop and then trot out "who could have seen it coming".

                            Why? Blair was fluent in French too. You usually find those who are highly educated tend to have the grasp of at least one other language, if not two.
