Description | A French pastry, the holy feast of Ramadan and a controversial French MP seeking to become head of his party have combined to create a media storm in France and left the country’s Muslim community angry.
First he lambasted “anti-white racism”, now an outspoken right-wing French politician has set his sights on the Muslim community as he seeks to become the heir to Nicolas Sarkozy.
Jean Francois Copé, who is bidding to become leader of the centre right UMP party, a position once held by Sarkozy, showed on Friday that he is not afraid to court controversy. |
