Le def jam
French President Jacques Chirac may be looking to give up his day job. Here are a few of his greatest hits, from conversations overheard by a reporter ahead of the G8 summit:

On the British:
"One cannot trust people whose cuisine is so bad" (to big laughs from Schroeder and Putin)...

"The only thing they have ever done for European agriculture is mad cow disease..."

"After Finland, it is the country with the worst food..."

... Mr Chirac is also reported to have reminisced about an occasion when Lord George Robertson, the former Secretary General of Nato, had made him try a Scottish dish.

"That is where our difficulties with Nato come from..."

Any of you folks from out of town?
