The answer is clearly to find some way of cloning Gaston Defferre.

Certain PCF-controlled municipalities were notorious for their harassment of minorities in the 1980s.

Georges Marchais also race-baited in the 1981 election. Incompetently, but then 'Georges Marchais'. You also need to consider attitudes towards linguistic minorities/minority languages. All of these things link up.

I doubt that many PCF members have ever encountered a laptop or would know how to use one...

More like a queue inside a post officer, or wherever it is that French pensioners go...

Yeah, he comes across as a nutjob on everything. Hated the gays, the Muslims, the Jews, the Protestants, the non-whites, the non-French (but loved Hitler), Charles de Gaulle... etc.

It's nice to know that he was prepared to make the occasional deserving exception.

By this point you really do need a heart of stone not to laugh.

If Flanby can beat anyone (and the 'if' is currently relevant) than it's the Poison Dwarf.

He would have already have been forced to resign for other (related) scandals. Though presumably the pimping accusations would have come during the campaign? Yeah, this is a hypothetical that actually destroys itself.

Well, of course he does. Better - from his perspective - to have a region for Nantes to dominate than for Nantes to be in a more 'logical' region but suddenly no longer quite so important.

It is depressing how often changes to subnational government turns on calculations like that.

His continued political survival is a thing of absolute and undeniable wonder. Fabius for President.

The fact that Laurent Fabius still has a political career, let alone that he's being mentioned seriously as a potential PM, is absolutely, utterly and in all other respects remarkable.

The correct nickname for Sarkozy is Poison Dwarf.
