    France is totally bankrupt': French employment minister Michel Sapin embarrasses President Francois Hollande with shocking statement on state of the country's economy

    France’s employment minister Michel Sapin has admitted the country is “totally bankrupt”.

    The unexpected news came during a radio interview yesterday and is thought to have sent the country’s business leaders into a state of shock.

    “There is a state but it is a totally bankrupt state,” Mr Sapin said.

    Mr Sapin’s “totally bankrupt” statement is likely to cause huge embarrassment for President Francois Hollande, who will be left to undo the potential damage to his socialist government’s reputation.

    It also calls into further question Hollande’s controversial “tax and spend” policies that have seen numerous entrepreneurs and high profile celebrities leave the country.

    There are even reports that Nicolas Sarkozy, the previous President of France, is preparing to move to London with his wife Carla Bruni for economic reasons.
