"何不食肉糜?/ Let Them Eat Cake / Qu'ils mangent de la brioche"

Marie-Antoinette

SBB:

If Financial Secretary John Tsang is really that oblivious to and out of touch with the conditions of the ppl, maybe the citizens of HK should give him a  "何不食肉糜?/ Let Them Eat Cake / Qu'ils mangent de la brioche" award !!!

 唐代周曇 有詩云: 

蛙鳴堪笑問官私,更勸饑人食肉糜;
蒙昧萬機猶婦女,寇戎安得不紛披?
