Mocking The French Government for Asking Arcelormittal to Leave France

Times of India reported that mocking the French Government for asking ArcelorMittal to leave France, London Mayor Mr Boris Johnson on Tuesday said "Sans-culottes (working class militants) appear to have captured Paris."

The London Mayor was speaking to Indian industry leaders at a Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry meeting here seeking investments for the world's leading financial centre.

Describing a 115 meter ArcelorMittal steel tower - Orbit - at the Olympics Park in London as fusion of friendship between India and the UK, Mr Johnson said, "I say this on a day when I picked up a newspaper and I see sans culottes appear to have captured the government of Paris and a French minister has been so eccentric as to call for a massive investor to depart."

Sans-culottes were the radical left-wing urban working class who dominated France during the French Revolution of 1789.
