To do: 1. Fix Europe. 2. Fix France

Nicolas Sarkozy left France yesterday for a short break on a private yacht in Malta. (Earlier claims that he had gone to a monastery proved to be false.) "He startled passport control officials when he passed through normal channels at the airport," the Guardian says. "Witnesses said he winked at other passengers."

The three-day holiday will be the last breathing space France's president-elect enjoys for a while. British commentators have plenty of urgent advice for him.
