Daladier

I may continue in this vein for quite some time...

Daladier is an interesting figure.
Of course, this is Munich. But he is said to have whispered, on the airport back to France, acclaimed by a big pacifist and naive crowd, "Les cons !"
But there is no evidence. Maybe himself rewriting history.
After that, he hastened French rearmament.
Anyway, sure, he was a typical radical one, but not the worst.

I vote for François-Marsal, not only a short caretaker, but a colonialist and representative of this business right that was wrong on economic matters between the WWs.

The François-Marsal government was appointed by a decree dated June, 9th. Next government (Herriot) was appointed by a decree dated June, 14th.

I will not oust Daladier this time, because he helped building the Popular Front. But he definitely deserves to go.

François-Marsal

He built it after running two cartels into the ground.

Bidault's out, and turnout was great! Smiley

ROUND NINE is now open, vote away.

JWHart is right, time to get rid of a caretaker technician. Frédéric François-Marsal.

Apparently was PM for about a week, so he barely counts.

Two days, actually Grin June 8 to June 10.

Wikipedia says for little more days: 8 June 1924 – 15 June 1924

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frédéric_François-Marsal

I trust French Wikipedia more. I think English Wikipedia counts slightly more days since they calculate until the official formation/nomination of the next cabinet, rather than stopping at the resignation of said cabinet.

François-Marsal was a "technician", and was obviously a caretaker until the Cartel des gauches formed a government (it was right after the left's victory in 1924).

I always regret I cannot speak nor read in French Sad

Sarrien, also a caretaker, and not a fine career besides being head of government (Steeg wasn't bad when he wasn't head of government).

Sarrien, "l'homme à la tête de veau".
Clemenceau has said of him: Sarrien, "ça...rien" (= that...nothing).

Clemenceau was Interior ministry (Home, police, cults) in his government because, when in Sarrien's office before the portfolios distribution, he answered "Interior" when Sarrien asked "what do you take ?".
In fact, Sarrien wanted to know which drink he wanted to take...

OK, Steeg,
better to dump those "small" ones now than to have them at the end and to realize "OMG why are they still here ?!"

But it would be fine to alternate, between caretakers, lightweights and some fine fights throughout the decades.
I intend to make a "bigger" vote next round !

Oh, you've guessed it !
That was the "bigger" vote I wanted to make.

Mollet !

He betrayed Mendès, he was the old SFIO man, he was harsh and stupid in Algeria, etc
A long list...
