Awkward

The Guardian has quite the awkward typo/Freudian slip today in its write-up of Nicolas Sarkozy's marriage to Carla Bruni over the weekend.

Relieved officials from Sarkozy's ruling UMP party yesterday hoped the quick wedding and Bruni's new official status would stem his plummeting approval ratings. At 41%, they are his lowest ratings since his election - and owe much to his slowness to push through convincing economic reforms and his very pubic romance.

We'll leave it at that.

Thanks to eagle-eyed Passport reader RM for the tip.
