Francois Hollande has triggered accusations of hypocrisy by making his first trip as France's newly elected socialist president in a £12,000-an-hour private jet.

The left-wing leader - who has promised massive tax hikes for the rich - was whisked into Paris in the luxurious Falcon 900 aircraft within hours of winning the election on Sunday night

Mr. Hollande, don't you know that Barry will criticize you for that Private plane?? Oh, forget it... you are one of his LEFTY FRIENDS.

Haha. These Frenchies are amateurs. AF1 costs 10 times as much and has enough capacity to lift Michelle AND her friends anywhere they please!

Ruling cla$$, baby! Let them eat Brie!

you would think The Beatles would have caught on much sooner:
"Let me tell you how it will be...
There's 1 for you 19 for me...
'Cause I'm the Tax man..."

You are going to get what you deserve France, and the EU, and I hope we can stop it here. I hope and pray there are enough people with pride in themselves and this Country to stand up to this slide into hell.
