Great Moments In Socialism
French government resigns en masse;
French government resigns en masse;
France's socialist prime minister resigned along with his entire government yesterday following a meltdown in local elections.
Jean-Marc Ayrault admitted that a huge swing to the Right, including to the extremist National Front, was down to him and his Left-wing government.
And last night socialist President Francois Hollande - whose rule has become synonymous with a 75 per cent top rate of income tax - admitted to mistakes and said his priority was now to cut taxes.
The government's resignation is a huge blow to the president, who was elected to a five-year term in 2012 but whose first two years in power have seen him become the most unpopular head of state in recent history.
