Short shrift from Sarkozy

French president Nicholas Sarkozy is embroiled in a domestic row over the cost of a shower built at taxpayers' expense but never used.
Rag Reader understands that President Sarkozy, 5ft 4in, is keen to distance himself from any suggestions that the reason he did not use the shower in question was because he could not reach the taps.
Sarkozy, who loves Gordon Brown but not in a sexual way and enjoys the company of shorter people, lists as his hobbies; standing on boxes and wearing platform shoes.
And he did not pick short factory workers to make himself look taller when making a speech.
