De Villepin survives third No-Confidence motion
M. de Villepin is having to defend himself again for the third time in a year since he took over as Prime Minister of France.
The so called Clearstream affair has highlighted the secrecy and spies within the French Government.
Recent events have put into question the ability of Jacques Chirac of being able to control matters in France. What has been dubbed his twilight zone, these are worrying times for the French President.
The Parti Socialist and the centre right UDF have agreed to vote in favour of the no-confidence motion.
Nicholas Sarkozy seems not to have recovered from the speculation regarding his handling of the student protests either.
We will see if in the next year whether or not there are changes made by the UMP to help them win the next Presidential election. The socialists are looking stronger.
