Barnier downfall threatens to set a pattern for what lies ahead

"So I expect to see several more motions of censure, and several more falls of government – before eventually we start to wake up."

This sounds very entertaining, but besides being incredibly stupid, how long is this rinse-repeat cycle of goobermints being formed and then censured going to take before the eventual wake-up call? In the mean time how does France function on a practical level? Besides arguing, exactly what will the legislature actually DO if they can't pass any laws or spend any money or raise any taxes?

How does the EU as a whole function with the Frogs in a perpetual state of chaos as the politicians jump from lily pad to lily pad? What will happen to the bond market during this game of ping-pong goobermints?

Collapse is so much fun. :) There's always some new twist to consider.
