Less than a month in France and I have already been making news! Today I was featured in the local newspaper, Nice-Matin, on page 4.

See below the article and below that, my translation:

Un jeune travailliste au stage au PS

La fédération socialiste des A.-M. accueille, pour un stage de six mois, Hadleigh, un jeune Anglais responsable des étudiants travaillistes dans la ville de Bath. << Il arrive avec des méthodes de communication nouvelles, développées par Tony Blair >>, explique Xavier Garcia, port-parole du PS 06 et auteur d’une thèse sur le parti travailliste. A son retour au pays, Hadleigh pourra peut-être donner un coup de main à Gordon Brown dont la cote de popularité est au plus bas.

A Labour student joins the PS

The Socialist Federation of the Alpes-Maritimes welcomes, for a placement of six months, Hadleigh, an English student responsible from Labour students in the city of Bath. “He arrives with new methods of communication, developped by Tony Blair”, explains Xavier Garcia, spokesman for the Parti Socialiste and author of a thesis on the Labour Party. At his return to the country, Hadleigh will perhaps be able to give Gordon Brown, whose popularity ratings are at their lowest, a push in the right direction.
