Paris Mayor Hidalgo trains sights on SUVs after e-scooter rental ban
Flush from this year's victory over banning rental electric scooters, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo has a new on-street target in her sights: SUVs.
Bidding for a place in history as the woman who made Paris green, she has promised another city referendum...
But the timing has raised suspicions that she's using it to divert attention from her own SUV - as in Startlingly Unnecessary Voyage.
Opposition council members in Paris City Hall scent blood over a two-week trip taken by Anne Hidalgo to New Caledonia and French Polynesia in the South Pacific in October.
The first half of the visit was supposedly on official business, but from 21 October she stayed on in order to visit her daughter living on the Polynesian island of Raiatea.
Even one or two useful idiots must notice how often the climate emergency is used by the upper echelons to whizz off on yet another international jolly.

Do as I say, not do as I do. In French.
Which according to Google Translate is "Faites ce que je dis, ne faites pas ce que je fais."
DJ - more honest would be "do as I say because you can't do as I do."
I've no problem with that, providing the entire trip was accomplished by outrigger canoe.
Watch out for Mare Khan doing something like the same, but where will he end up?
Original thinking from the GLC equivalent isn't much better...
According to Hachette, it's "Faites ce que je te dis...."
Sam - I have a sneaking suspicion that she cheated on the climate and didn't even consider sailing.
Scrobs - he'll end up somewhere exotic, they always seem to manage that.
decnine - sounds like Google v Hachette. I can't contribute, I never went beyond O Level.
