	Pave France - The British Need More Parking
		Well, this is all very warm and populist, but if M. Lang thinks an address on the Place des Vosges is within sight of the common French or if after elected president of France he would lead a "simple life" he is either lying for effect or he is off his meds.
		Lang said one of his first acts as president would be to "tour Europe to return confidence to other countries which have sometimes been treated badly" by Chirac's government.

	Stung by vote, prime minister of France to quit
		The balding native of the Landes pine forests of southwestern France rapidly came to epitomize the arrogant technocrat that the French, beset with nagging high unemployment and a sense that their society has come unstuck, more and more resent.
		Under the French system, the prime minister must be able to secure a majority in parliament, but he or she -- there has been one woman, Socialist Edith Cresson, in 1991-92 -- customarily serves as a safety valve for the president and is sacrificed for reasons of tactical or electoral expediency.
		Lang, the former Socialist minister, countered that "the French won't be the dupes of a last-minute bluff, which consists of replacing one head by another, when what has been condemned is not a man, but a policy, a method of government and a vision of society."

		Even France's Minister of Education, Jack Lang, who in the early 1980s, as François Mitterrand's first Minister of Culture, railed against the importation of American culture and English words, has mellowed on the issue.

		Jack Lang, the common man of the Place des Vosges, becomes the latest victim of the obvious.
		Mr Lang, 67, said he had plumped for Miss Royal in the Socialist primaries because she was the best placed to "beat the Right" in elections next April.
		He said Miss Royal, whose campaign has been showing signs of losing steam in recent days, was the only candidate capable of winning the primaries outright in the first round, sending a strong message to the wide spectrum of France's Left-wing electorate that they should get behind her in national polls.

	Languages of France - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In April 2001, the Minister of Education, Jack Lang, admitted formally that for more than two centuries, the political powers of the French government had repressed regional languages, and announced that bilingual education would, for the first time, be recognized, and bilingual teachers recruited in French public schools.
		Certain of the languages of France are also cross-border languages (for example, Basque, Catalan, Picard, Norman, Franco-Provençal, Flemish, Occitan and others), some of which enjoy a recognised or official status in the respective neighbouring state or territory.
		What it means is that 14% of people living in France in 1999 were born and raised up to the age of 5 in families that spoke only (or predominantly) some other languages than French.
