That sounds a lot like the IFS's analysis of the Reform "contract"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prettytom Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 It looks as though it has been a grim week for the right wing in France, just like in the UK. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/ck7gydwgvy8t Well done French voters. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only an exit poll, so too early to celebrate. I really hope it's true though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delbow Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 A far better result than I could have hoped for. I still can't work out why Macron thought calling a snap election was going to help him out- manoeuvre the far right and far left, but he's failed badly anyway. Doubtless his arrogance and egotism will see him stay president until 2027 regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead, hard work, honesty, policy and direction should define a politician, whatever their politics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
