A dispatch from Reuters:

Taking their protest against France's nuclear tests in the Pacific to new heights this past Christmas, activists in Britain urged that no French-kissing be done under the mistletoe. They also urged their fellow countrymen to boycott French mistletoe in favor of the homegrown variety.

[Ed.: A trade association of Australian prostitutes announced that to protest French nuclear testing, they would boycott French underwear, hosiery, and cosmetics. Also, Australia's largest chain of adult sex shops and cinemas has taken all French products off its shelves.]
