Let them eat cake!
Silence, exile, and cunning.

I was just thinking about that while trying to find a " let them eat cake" meme for Rishi Sunak but came up with this!

Do they really need to legislate that housework is the womans role?
Why should a lazy woman be convicted of a crime?
This is absolutely crazy.
Next thing you know they will legislate that women have a requirement to an orgasm from sex!

I’m absolutely in favour of zis. I should like to inform the gestapo on myself immediately. As a young teenager, I found it necessary to tidy up my room just to remind myself what colour the carpet was.
Vive la femme!

Most marriages already have one, and the other person lifts heavy things and unscrews lids.
I actually do everything around the house. I'm not bald; it's a thumb print.
You've called on the emergency line again, Mrs Thomas*. We're a little busy to pull anyone off homicide at the moment. Perhaps you could sort this one out yourself. Leave a note that his dinner's in the dog.

You seem all to forget this is the presidential elections moment in France, right now....
As always in these times, stupid ideas are thrown in order to gain attention. Attention is advertisement, bad or good, whatever as long as people talk about it.
I'm also pretty sure that you can find fresher Frog quotes than the one from 200 years ago, it's a bit always the same memes and catchphrases when it comes to the pastries motherland.

It' was so predictable, to the point it become boring. ^^
No need to explain it to me, thanks, i'm slighty aware of the context, as you can guess by yourself...
