Sunday, 21st March, 2010: Malcolm learns to love the French

The BBC reports:

President Sarkozy's centre-right party has suffered a heavy defeat in the French regional elections, early projections of the voting suggest.

Exit polls suggest the Socialist-led opposition alliance took 54% of the vote with Mr Sarkozy's UMP on 36%.

If confirmed the results leave the UMP in control of only one of France's 22 regions, the Alsace region in the east.

Sarkozy had over 53% at the 2007 Presidential election: Ségolène Royal had less than 47%. That's a swing of 12% to the good.
