Perfidious French vie for Linguistic Supremacy!

Rochester
By Rochester

As if it weren't enough that we have to listen to the news in French on Radio Qatar, and hours on end of laughably derivative French music, these devious masters of diplomacy are trying to make their flowery lisping the main legal language of the EU!

Make you voice heard before Agincourt is reversed and find ourselves subject to the Napoleonic Code!

The French news program "expresso" is the only thing on QBS that can reasonably pass for news.
