FRENCH LABOR DISPUTE OF THE WEEK SO FAR

THE entire workforce of a British-owned factory in France is taking strike action because managers only speak English.

Disturbing Excerpt: Staff have been downing tools three times a day since the English management took over.

I'd rather down mommyjuice than tools.

A see a great Monty Python sketch. Cleese: "Bonjour, your requestez for une raisez is being considerez....Bonjour". (Next scene shows dummy being thrown from factory window).

The British should stand firm. The workers are French. You know they'll surrender.

I'm surprised the French felt they needed an excuse to go on strike.

What's the problem? The British don't speak English, either.
