I wonder whether John Thaw (aka Inspector Morse) could be classed as having had an MLC - my friend said she had just finished reading a book his wife, Sheila Hancock wrote, The Two of Us, and the way she described it, it could well be...

I don't think politicians count at all, presidents, mp's, French or not.
They are a greedy odd bunch with power on the mind.
They are all bonkers, ruthless and liars. The only crisis we should credit them with, is the financial crisis they've afflicted upon us all.

Hear hear!

 Booboo, I think it was more investment bankers and the subprime dirty business that put the crisis upon us.

Still, most of those guys (and gals) that run the world, run it high. On drugs, money, power, sex, whatever.

Yep TT, Trierweiler was the OW. Now the OW was traded for a newer OW model. Trierweiler had it so bad that she spend a week in hospital when she found out about the new OW.

Hollande for sure is a case of MLC, you just have to look at the photo of him bent over on a scooter sneaking out to OW2...(a president!)

Mind you, he wasn't married to the mother of his 4 children either, 'only' stayed nearly 30 years or so with her (so probably missed some aspects of puberty to be able to commit fully to his family).

Also affair down, and more down: 'wife' Royal, a female politician (and was BD kind of around when she was presenting as president), OW1 a journalist writing on politics OW2 a film star(let? I am not so up to date)....

Imagine a country run by a MLCler, yeah, no wonder France is so much in crisis...

It is said that one of the first things Hollande asked when he arrived to the Elysee was how he could sneak out without being seen. Of course this could had been and innocent question but I suspect it was so that Monsieur scooter could go meet OW2.

I would say spending 30 years with someone and have 4 kids with them allows for husband and wife to be used.

"Trierweiler also admitted that news of François Hollande's affair with a French actor left her feeling like she had "fallen from a skyscraper".

Pretty sure it was like falling from a skyscraper mademoiselle Trierweiler, you just forgot that when you were sleeping with Segolene Royal husband, right?... Because for Royal is surely was not like falling from a skyscraper..

This OW, really... why are they always such big drama queens? Phew...

And why is everyone treating Trierweiler has the adorable, faithful betrayed partner is beyond me.

[toughtimes]

Anjae I totally agree with you, I do have sympathy for Trierweiler but not that much. It is that old adage...if your partner cheated to be with you they may very well cheat on you. I see it all the time! Naïveté.

I've been watching Breaking Bad on Netflix, and am convinced Walter White is
in MLC. I don't want to give anything away for those yet to see it, but let's be honest, he says he does what he does for his family, yet keeps going when he has a change to quit, lies to his family non stop, has more than enough money yet keeps cooking. Its all about his enormous ego, his drive to be "the man". When things go wrong, he takes zero responsibility. In fact if he wanted to help his family, he could have avoided the whole meth thing so his family aren't in perpetual danger of being killed or kidnapped. He can't even keep track of the lies anymore.

I don't like Walter, I think hes a jerk. But to my mind, a. MLC jerk.

That's my H!!!!! To the T. I have said it before and I still maintain that my H is living his life through that TV series!
He even had a friend called 'Jessy' at one point!!!! And, like Skylar or whatever her name is, the wife, I have a shop!

My h doesn't cook up meth though, something more 'B class' and he wants to be the best at it!!!

My H fell in love with that tv series!

I am embarrassed of him!
