pas de (mentalité): "on efface tout et on recommence"
An idea... the new sheriff being the new broom that sweeps clean, though for that my dictionary gives "tout nouveau tout beau" which seems inappropriate to me....

" With the exception of some comedies like "Blazing Saddles," the phrase, "There's a new sheriff in town," does not actually appear in any Western movie, at least as far as I can tell. Yet, despite its lack of real cinematic pedigree, it has become a part of our folklore, an expression that signals a change in the works, a new, radical and better way of doings things, one that is long over due, and while in the process some toes might get stomped, it is clearly for the best."
