Now you're being even sillier. The Torygraph's report is exactly correct and you're making mischief out of it. There's no way anyone other than a fool/troublemaker would interpret the report as portraying the Nazis in a positive light; it is a factual observation and portrays the French minister in a very poor light.

Jon, the gunboats was a Boris type decision - and quite right too because the militant French have form.

Why does Jersey have to be very friendly to France when they (fishermen) want to pillage the fishing grounds and not adhere to the licences that they have been granted?

And threatening to cut electricity (a commercial contract) is a friendly act by France?

And why hasn't France (or Jersey) invoked the formal treaty dispute mechanism?
