    So if France can do it, so can we.

    Unless the problem isn't the EU rules at all, but rather our own...

    Sorry drc, I can't find a link to this on any "proper" news website, but I can find plenty on websites like Stormfront. Does anyone speak good enough French to google it in the French press to see if it comes up there?

    I'm not convinced that eutimes is a genuine news site. Please see:

    If that happens then the Govnmt here should cut the benefits so they are more than what the french cut them by.
