Premise: THE French justice minister who returned to work five days after having a baby, only to lose her job, launched a political comeback last week, letting it be known that she will run for mayor of Paris. Rachida Dati, 43, long seen as President Nicolas Sarkozy's favourite among the "Sarko-zettes" - his women ministers - lost his confidence and was ordered to leave the cabinet and instead run for the European parliament. She used the launch of her party's European election campaign to deny she was a Sarkozy creation and to add gravitas to the "bling-bling" image attached to her since she posed in a £15,000 Christian Dior dress at a fashion gala.
Hypothesis: The French justice minister who returned to work seven days after having a baby.
