France's presidential frontrunner Emmanuel Macron declared London to be the sixth biggest French city as he sought to woo hundreds of thousands of his fellow citizens this side of the Channel.The “sixth city” title was originally coined by then mayor Boris Johnson after the dramatic increase in the number of citizens from France in London. But Centrist candidate Mr Macron, 39, gave the title an official seal of approval at a 3,500-strong rally in central London last night.
“I’m pleased to be here...in what is the sixth French city...because it is essential as you are French women and French men who will have their say over the destiny of our country at a critical point in its history,” he said.
The reason a lot of them came here (particularly those who settled in Kensington) was to escape the 75% tax rate. They'll certainly be buggering off back to France again if Corbyn gets in...
His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...

Yes, it’s been good. He’s been to places where (due to freedom of movement) I’ve been able to carry out contracts easily over the last couple of decades.
If France is that fooking good why are loads of migrants desperately trying to get out of it and into the UK?
Not all migrants that end up in France are trying to come to the UK. The main reasons for the ones that do is that they already have family here and the fact most young people speak English to some extend thanks to the wonders of the English dominated internet.

Tons of French in Kensington. Shame so few of them bothered opening decent little bistros.

Me too. And if I need to fill in a few extra forms in the future to do the same then I will. Because I'm resourceful, unlike you who will stand there wringing his hands like a ******* useless fairy.

Hth but I seriously doubt it.
No help to me - Because I’m resourceful, I have dual nationality, unlike you who will stand there wringing his hands like a ******* useless fairy, trying to fill in forms with your crayon.

I like having security clearances the type that dual nationality will preclude one from holding. As and when circumstances change then I shall claim my Irish Passport. Yet another instance of you making assumptions and being handed your arse on a plate.
