Even in France, politics are traditionally left-wing and it is fashionable to be anti-Sarkozy. But the so called "caviar-left", that is, the snobbish, stiff upper-lipped kind disgusts me, it is hypocritical.

I am overjoyed, but I repeat: it is not my country which awards me. In Italy, those who make a name for themselves in other countries are ignored.

Ne sono lusingata, ma ripeto: non è il mio paese a darmela. In Italia, chi si fa valere all'estero non viene considerato.

Pure in Francia è un ambiente tradizionalmente schierato a sinistra e fa molto chic essere anti-Sarkozy. Ma la cosiddetta "sinistra-caviale", cioè quella snob con la puzza sotto il naso, mi fa schifo, è ipocrita.
