    From the media at the moment I have got the impression that the French have lost the plot in terms of Irish Corporate tax rates. I can't help but take away the emotion and, low & behold, I can't find any genuine analysis. I feel I am not being informed.

    - Is the emotion enough and I can accept the French are that daft?
    Or
    - Is there a lack of information? Is it, as a colleague mentoined, all to do with transfer pricing?

    If there is a lack of information, why, in this democracy, am I not being informed? Why is there a preferance to 'wind me up' by the learned media?

    No, it's because the French have. They're being irrational so that Sarkozy can come across as tough and get a few votes in the election. He's being like that on a number of issues.

    it depends on what you're reading, emotion v information is the classic tabloid broadsheet divide
