LONDON - Britons perceive Parisians as more rude, arrogant and unwelcoming than other French people, according to a survey.
More than 70 per cent of those quizzed believed the French capital’s inhabitants were more snobbish, while more than 65 per cent thought them more aggressive and arrogant.
The CSA poll also found that as many as 68 per cent generally held a “good opinion” of their fellow countrymen living in the capital.
“We find them to be hard working and cultivated,” The Telegraph quoted the political magazine Marianne as saying of Parisians in an editorial published alongside the survey.
“But we consider them to be above all way too arrogant, aggressive, flirtatious, stressed, chauvinistic, snobbish, and self-regarding than other French people,” it was added. (ANI)
