   Having a spineless europhile-lackey in Downing Street will always produce rapturous applause from a French President.

   Does anyone have an idea about why Sarkozy felt it necessary to add: “But not in a sexual way”? Did he add the rider when making the same smarmy compliment to Blair or Obama?

   Since when is Gordon Brown an economist anyway? He’s “qualified” as a trade union historian.

   I had a French boss once, who told me the same thing. We were alone together in an office. Instinctively, I moved further away from him, which he doubtless found amusing. I think it’s a Gallic tease, to show masculine power over the other.
