Tag: Sophie Wilmès

Quote of the day: On democracy

It would be good to follow the wishes of the population from time to time.

— Georges-Louis Bouchez, leader of the francophone liberal party, arguing that fellow party member Sophie Wilmès should stay on as Prime Minister if the so-called Vivaldi coalition is formed.

I don’t disagree with the sentiment, but the phrasing is… interesting.
