With our village elections coming up shortly, this article about the only English mayor in the whole of France was interesting.
It appears to me that our village is settling into two distinct camps. One camp focuses on things arty and the other on things traditional. I could go on about this, but being a sensitive soul (you really shouldn't put sensitive in the same sentence as yourself - Ed), caring about other people's feelings and not wanting to be run out of town, I have to say that there is room in the village for both 'sides'. Last summer they both put on a weekend fête and both were good in their own way. One provided plates and cutlery and the other didn't. One provided a better meal than the other, but both were great fun and I would hate to see one side win over the other. Such is village life and village politics. We try to stay out of the politics.
