Macron wins huge majority in parliamentary election
Jump to: Newest in thread
Macrons party has decimated the establishment in parliament giving him a massive mandate to carry out his agenda. The two main parties are looking at 3 figure losses in seats. Le Pens party fell to 8 seats, not enough to form a parliamentary group. |

"whatever happened to the far right taking over and destroying the EU in the Netherlands and France..?
as some on here were predicting with glee regardless of the social consequences last year.. "
Do you remember when they said that Italy was about to collapse too? |

I read an interesting article about how Trump's win has made Europe liberal again. It's on a site called five thirty eight.
I've been working in France recently and people are voting for Macron but also feeling concerned that he may have carte blanche to do whatever.

People are strange. I knew an American girl who voted for Bush for a second term and then got really worried because he said in his acceptance speech that he now had a mandate to carry out his agenda. Like she was concerned she'd get what she voted for  |

"Interesting fact :
He is married to his ex-school teacher. They formed a relationship when he was 15 and she was 39, as a teacher in his drama club."
This was done to death on here during the Presidential election. |

Nice attempt at spin but you failed to mention the turnout was very low. Low Turn out suggests people are disillusioned in France and Macron doesn't have as big a mandate as you suggest. |

If that is all they can pin on him then I'm disappointed. |

There was no spin there. Its just the facts as they are. Low turn outs happen when the result is beyond doubt as well and we've known for weeks that Macron was going to get a massive majority.
No comment on Le Pens poor results then? Her party is the 9th largest and only has 8 seats, not even enough to form a parliamentary group.
Or maybe look at the decline of the alt right that since Trump/Brexit has seen them under perform in Austria, France, Netherlands and Finland to go along with Mays embarrassing losses in the UK and the falls in polls for the hard right in Italy and Germany.
Not to mention the improving standing of the EU where 63% of the citizens in France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden and the UK are positive about the EU. The UK in fact has 10% more people feeling positive about the EU compared to last year. |

Macron didn't really have a party as such.... so didn't he approached people from other parties with promises of cake and chocolate and all kinds of nice things if they joined him?
As he was already going to be president that would kinda work? Just glancing as an outside observer it seems to be something pretty much like that. |

I've kept away from the politics forum, so missed all that. Just mentioned as a light hearted aside... |

I did Google and the only places linking the two are sites that have massive credibility issues and have a history of publishing out right lies. You shouldnt be listening to Infowars so much. |

You are looking in the wrong places. Its in the mainstream. But I'll ask the question again - what do you think of George Soros? |

Ok, lets see a mainstream and credible source?
Hes been a successful investor, given away huges sums of money to charitable organisations and has been very politically active on the left side of politics. The right, in response, has created some bizarre idea of him as an omnipotent and evil force in the world who will take down society for unspecified reasons.
But you'd have to be completely lacking in critical thinking to believe the outlandish tales the right tell. He's apparently responsible for Black Lives Matter, the Womens March, the syrian refugee crisis, is a nazi,the muslim takeover of the west (which I must have missed) and so much more.
In actuality hes donated 11 billion to education, human rights, promotes fact checking (which the alt right obviously hates), helps refugees, free speech, democracy advocates and more. |

So you think he is a good guy do you? And of course there is nothing in any of it for him? The only good thing I can think of him doing is taking down the socialists in France. So, you have dismissed Saudi Arabia and Soros so who do you think bankrolled Macron? Possibly the Rothschilds? Anyone? Or do you think he walked into his local Co-Op bank and asked for an overdraft cuz he fancied running for President? |
