Villiers is an effete idiot, and Monarchist. He doesn’t believe in individual liberty, but in the divine right of Kings.
These people are so far outside the mainstream of modern thinking . it isn’t his paticule that makes him unpopular. It is his elitism and effeminate manner of speaking.
I should have written Viscount and Monarchist. Elitism and effete mannerism is the norm for the ruling class in France. It is not beneficial for someone trying to lead opposition to the this traitor class.
