'French President Jacques Chirac showed his temper at the EU summit when a French business leader addressed delegates in English.
He stormed out of a session when Ernest-Antoine Seilliere said he chose English "because that is the accepted business language of Europe today".
Mr Chirac told reporters on Friday he was "deeply shocked" that a Frenchman chose to address the summit in English. '

Hahaha what a silly wanker!
Still, always nice to see the French flailing against their falling place in the world and the pending extinction of their language.
Everything and nothing. Read it, shrug your shoulders and move on.
