France v. Turkey
President HOLLANDE goes to Turkey and television reports only what he says about France and NOTHING on Turkey! Granted, bad employment news trumps Turkish visit, but 100%?
Gas and garbage
Why is it that we get garbage picked up 6 nights/week but they only come once or twice a year to read the gas meter?

Le passé trop protégé
Loic LeMUR was on Telematin this morning from Davos talking about France, Silicon Valley and how France can be more successful in this arena. I thought that he captured by own sense of the problem when he said that France was too protective of the past. He gave an example in Uber and the fight with Paris taxis. France is too protective of the past/existing taxi system and should be more flexible and accepting of change. The same applies to the digital world, he said.

Patrick Allemand présente "Un autre avenir pour Nice", une liste de large ouverture - France 3 Côte d’Azur
There seems to be a big difference between the diversity of this group and the one shown on France2 last evening with the debut of the new RUQUIER program at 18h30. The latter really looked diverse in all respects; ALLEMAND's group somehow does not look quite so inclusive, but one would really have to look at both pictures side-by-side. A faire.....
