For those who may wonder what political side I stand on, I will just answer this: A society does not become indecent when a few exceed the limits. It becomes so when no one seems surprised that those limits have been crossed. I have quite a few examples of this indecency across all parties. You will understand that I will vote blank (even if it serves no purpose in itself) in the presidential elections of 2027. I also take this opportunity to say that a Swedish minister, Mona Sahlin, used her official credit card to buy some cigarettes, cosmetics, and Toblerone. She reimbursed everything and resigned. In France, we "own it." It's the equivalent of "seen it and don’t care," and there are never any consequences. Exemplarity must come from the very top first and foremost. Period. A society cannot be well if its highest representatives behave like little gangsters. (translated)
