  1. Wow, that’s a pretty dramatic shift in votes, bad news for Marine Le Putin I suppose.

  2. So it seemed Macron knew what he was doing when he called this.

    Sure, his party is not winning… but I gather the whole point in this was to stick the boot into Le Penn before she got any big ideas about the future.

  3. Am a continent away and did not expect Le Pen to win the majority of seats. Not when her party got like 34% in the first round then the others ganged up to defeat her

  4. Yeeeah that’s good. Now we need to seize this opportunity to send as fucking much weapons to Ukraine as possible.

  5. Hi, I’m Ukrainian, congrats on beating le-putin to fellow French! But they still got a lot of votes you’ve got to be vigilant.

    On a side note (apologies if I sound a bit egotistical), I know there some hard pro russian in the left. Are they in coalition? How many are there?

  6. Probably for the best. The way Le Pen cozied up to Putin was a bit uncomfortable to see.

    Still, I’m afraid that those who are worried about immigration and further social decline should expect to see more of the same now, if it’s not outright accelerated.
