SEGOLENE IS A HYPOCRITE AND A CHEAT

TELEGRAPH (UK):

Ségolène Royal's intention to fund a Socialist France with tax rises for the rich was brought under the spotlight yesterday when it was claimed her own financial contribution to the state was some seven times less than it should be.

According to Le Canard Enchaîné weekly newspaper, the property portfolio of the Left's presidential candidate and her partner, Francois Hollande, the Socialist Party leader, was undervalued by more than £500,000, meaning they paid significantly less in ISF 'solidarity' tax, a notoriously high duty imposed on anyone with assets of more than £500,000.

UK GUARDIAN:

The paper alleged Ms Royal had underestimated its value on her tax return. It said other properties belonging to Ms Royal and her partner, the Socialist party leader, François Hollande, had also been undervalued. The couple had declared their entire portfolio, including their flat on the outskirts of Paris and Ms Royal's constituency home, to be worth €933,000. The newspaper claimed the portfolio's market value was just more than €1.8m. [UMPH ADDED.]

Their vacation home in the south of France was estimated to be worth more than three times the amount declared in their tax form, the newspaper said. It was not the first time that Royal and Hollande's taxes have been dragged into the presidential campaign. In January she published a list of her assets after charges that they were trying to limit their fiscal exposure.

The documents showing that she was paying a wealth tax hurt her image among some that she was the candidate of the "working class." The revelation that she was paying the wealth tax played particularly badly because Hollande had famously told a television talk show last year: "I do not like the rich."

JUST LIKE BREZHNEV AND GORE, (AND OBAMA AND HIS STOCKS, AND EDWARDS AND HIS MANSION), SEGOLENE ROYAL IS A LEFTIST WHO REFUSES TO PLAY BY THE RULES SHE ESPOUSES.

SHE TOO IS A PHONY, LYING, HYPOCRITICAL CHEAT. WHICH IS WHY SHE IS THE PERFECT NOMINEE FOR THE SOCIALISTS!
