National Front France Big Jump


Recommended Posts

Care to point them out? I can think of many if they got the presidency.....

 

They oppose free trade and want to introduce tariffs on imports. A sure fire winner there.

 

Now they can run untested at the presidency without a track record to defend and legitimately pointing out the socialists gamed the system to keep them out.

 

And there was me thinking you were upset the FN had lost but all along you were celebrating their defeat by moaning about it.

She won't win the Presidency, for the same reason that the FN have been routed today. There is no need to allow them to create regional havoc. The French electorate don't want them.

 

Sometimes, democracy works.

 

Then why game the system? If it wasn't required and clearly will anger their voters why score such a huge own goal?

I'm 'moaning' about the fact they were not defeated as they could have been. Now France has a serious problem.

It seems to work best at preserving the status quo, the established parties!

 

Both here and in France.

 

What is so difficult about arranging an electoral system that says if you get 40% of the vote, you get 40% of MP's?

 

Is that too democratic?

 

It can become a very inefficient way of running government, nobody can agree on anything.
