A difference between us and France

They're rioting about cuts, and the two most read stories on the Guardian website are about Wayne Rooney possibly leaving Manchester United.

"Spending review axe falls on the poor" is only third.

I had the same thoughts myself today.

I have learned that you can say just about anything at the local pub. However, should you mention that Mr Rooney is a potato that can kick a ball, well.
