A 19-year-old politics student at South Betoota Technical College is the talk of the town this afternoon after becoming an expert in the ins and outs of the French political system overnight.

Close to a dozen of his classmates swooned over Gregor Liston, who now sports a gleaming hickey, as he regaled them with humorous and insightful anecdotes and explanations of what people can expect in the ongoing French election.

“Yeah [laughs] last night was wild,” said Liston as he pulled his hood off his neck, exposing the hickey.

“And I’m not talking about Le Pen! Crazy, huh? Anyway, I’ve been following the French election for quite some times now. In fact, I’ve been enamoured with the entire political system of the Fifth Republic since forever. But yeah, I’m basically the go-to guy on campus when it comes to anything politique française.”

More to come.
