Until François Hollande came along, Nicolas Sarkozy was the most unpopular French president of modern times, derided for his “bling-bling” image and his undignified courting of a supermodel.
Now, Mr Sarkozy is poised to make a dramatic political comeback as the saviour of France, the man who can rescue the nation from its deep economic malaise.
Two years after his defeat by the Socialist and self-styled “normal president”, Mr Hollande, Mr Sarkozy has announced that he will stand for the leadership of the conservative UMP party, paving the way for a re-match in the 2017 presidential election.
Val says he seems to be courting a new laid back image, sporting a chin like the donkeys bristle brush.
