Riots in France tonight? 18:49 - Jul 7 with 7179 viewsgtsb1966

Can see why from both sides. People not wanting a far right government and the far right angry because in many places, left or centrist candidates have withdrawn, to allow the anti-RN vote to be concentrated on one contender. This ain't going to end well.

Dirty tactics from the establishment. I think society needs a kick up the arse from time to time and I hope our french friends get what they want.

That is great news from my point of view.


France's far-right National Rally (RN) party has been beaten into third place in France's parliamentary election, according to exit polls from BFM.
The left-wing coalition New Popular Front is expected to take between 172-205 seats.
In a huge surprise, Emmanuel Macron's centrist alliance Ensemble is expected to receive around 150-175 seats.
RN and its allies are expecting to get between 115-150 seats.


Presumably there will be trouble on the streets with the left celebrating and right protesting.

They won’t get a kick up the arse they’ll get a jack boot on their necks. How can you look at a party lead by the daughter of a man with links to Nazis and think that’s what Europe needs again?

Interestingly it suggests France has moved slight to the left, but with the far right prominent, just like Britain.

I assume there will be a change of Prime Minister.

If enough of them want it they’ll get it, that’s how democracy works. I don’t really see what’s particularly dirty about it, if they don’t get enough votes to get elected then they don’t deserve to.

I don't think electing nazis is the sort of "kick up the arse" society needs at any time.

That’s still far too many fascists. They’ve got a much bigger problem with the far right than us and are probably a good country to learn from.

Nah, that’s not going to happen either. He’s completely in denial over how he’s started coming across. Not that Trump is much better cognitively. What a thoroughly depressing place the US is in. And from looking in from the outside, embarrassing too.

It was the anti-establishment left-wing bloc that led on standing down its candidates to help defeat the far right - they are more serious about doing so than the establishment centrists who prevaricated about doing so. The establishment sees the left as far more of a threat to its interests than the far-right.

Is that so? Sounds like a whole melting pot of opinions. I guess that is what a democracy is.

Fair play to Macron. As a centrist he's managed to embolden the hard right and now the hard left.
