    French interior minister claims some civilisations 'superior’

    France’s conservative interior minister in charge of immigration policy has sparked controversy by claiming some civilisations are “superior” to others.


    In a Saturday speech to a group of right-leaning French students at the National Assembly, interior minister Claude Guéant caused a political uproar for saying that, “contrary to what the left’s relativist ideology says, for us, all civilisations are not of the same value”.

    Reckon that's right - the English are far superior to the French.

    That's a mistake and is racist. English are not far superior, just a small amount. Or French may arguably be just a bit superior.

    for us, all civilisations are not of the same value”.
    He is right. For him as a Frenchman his own has a greater value. For all civilisations their own has greater value.

    Quite right you have been repped.

    The French couldn't even have a revolution with out cutting off the heads of the very people that started it.

    At the English Restoration in 1660, six Commissioners and four others were found guilty of regicide and executed; one was hanged and nine were hanged, drawn and quartered. In 1662 three more regicides were hanged, drawn and quartered. Some others were pardoned, while a further nineteen served life imprisonment and three already dead at the time of the Restoration had their bodies desecrated.

    William the French Bast@rd owned England and then Henry V to George II owned France, but it got an Assembly by devolution. The English may not be ready for democracy yet.
