Paris - Arab Today

French presidential candidate Francois Fillon on Monday apologized for the “error” he made in hiring his wife as a parliamentary aide while denying she was paid for a fake job.
“I apologize to the French people,” conservative candidate Fillon told a press conference, admitting it was an “error” that he regretted “deeply.”
In an aggressive performance that saw him accuse the media of trying to destroy him politically, Fillon said his British-born wife Penelope’s salary was “perfectly justified” and he would continue in the presidential race.
Addressing allegations that Penelope did not actually perform any duties to earn hundreds of thousands of euros, Fillon said: “No-one has the right to judge what a parliamentary assistant’s job consists of, except the MP himself.”
He said his wife had worked constantly to assist in his constituency business and that her average monthly salary of €3,700 ($4,000) after tax over 15 years had been fair for a woman with training in law.
