She says politics disgusts her... now Brigitte Bardot wants to challenge Sarkozy as French president
Daily Mail UK ^ | October 19, 2010 | Ian Sparks

She said in an interview last month that politics disgusts her. But today Brigitte Bardot announced that she could be running for French president at the next election in 2012.

The former actress, now 76, shocked fans in 1973 when she retired to become an animal rights activist. Now she has been asked by France's Ecology Alliance party to challenge Nicolas Sarkozy for the country's leadership. The party campaigns for animal rights and against the ritual slaughter of livestock by Muslims for halal meat.

Bardot has now written to President Sarkozy telling him she may run against him because he 'took her for an idiot' by not keeping his manifesto promises to outlaw the traditional Muslim treatment of animals.

She wants a law making it compulsory to give animals anaesthetic before their throats are slit in keeping with Islamic teaching.

She is known for her strong right wing views on immigration and homosexuality and has been convicted and fined four times for racist and anti-gay remarks. ..... she branded US presidential candidate Sarah Palin 'a disgace to women' and described her as 'disconcertingly stupid'

She is all over the place. Could she be pining for lost looks and youth??

Well we know she isn’t wine, because she certainly didn’t age well.
