RT by @djeppink: France is simply not a serious country anymore. Our new Prime Minister - Gabriel Attal - is 34 years old.

Here's his CV:
- Went to one of the poshest high schools in Paris (École Alsacienne)
- Graduated university (Sciences Po) in Paris in 2012 with a Master of Public Affairs
- Worked a menial job (parliamentary liaison) for five years at the Ministry of Health
- Became an MP in 2017 of a small posh constituency in greater Paris
- Since he is arguably a good public speaker he was made spokesperson of La République En Marche! (Macron's party) in January 2018
- October 2018: appointed Secrétaire d'État (junior minister) to the Minister of National Education and Youth
- 2020: he became the government spokesperson
- May 2022: he became Minister of Public Action and Accounts
- July 2023: appointed Minister of National Education and Youth
- January 2024: Prime Minister

So here we have a guy who graduated university only 12 years ago, only has 6 years work experience at a job with actual "responsibilities" and half that time he was a spokesperson (i.e. a press secretary). He has never worked (or even studied) outside Paris and has obviously remained in the same small cushy bubble all his - very short - life, stepping directly from the benches of his posh school to those of the French government. The most hardship he's suffered in his life is probably when his mummy grounded him for not doing his homework...

Are you telling me this is the profile of a man with the character and life experience necessary to lead a country's government? I mean, COME ON! I know liberal democracy has become such that politicians are supposed to be mere pretty faces just explaining to you that "it's not true that everything is going to shit and we're the best" but even with this standard, this is just a joke. I mean, at least try to make it look real...

I'd actually take any random 50…
