French Distancing More from Sarkozy

People in France are growing disappointed with Nicolas Sarkozy, according to a poll by CSA published in Le Parisien. 62 per cent of respondents have no confidence in their president, up three points since June.
The French are also increasingly condemning the performance of Prime Minister François Fillon, with 54 per cent of respondents expressing no confidence in him, up five points in a month.

In May 2007, Sarkozy, candidate for the centre-right Union for a Popular Movement (UMP) and former interior minister, won the presidential run-off with 53.06 per cent of the vote. Sarkozy appointed Fillon—who had been his adviser and presidential campaign leader—as prime minister.
