Why isn't there a French politics thread? I enjoy reading about the upcoming election, but it seems as if there's enough interest for a genuine France thread here. And even if nothing happens, you can have regional slapfights like Bretons vs Parisians or whatever, like we do in the German politics thread. (Southern Germans are scum  ) Or talk about the best French food etc.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/28/world/europe/scotland-britain-brexit-european-union.html Seems like Scotland voted for another chance to leave UK. I'd be surprised if it doesn't pass this time. I was really surprised it didn't pass the first time around, as every single Scot i've talked to wants out.

Tingfinder posted:https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/28/world/europe/scotland-britain-brexit-european-union.html Not quite. Scotland's parliament has voted to support a motion ask the UK parliament for legislation allowing another referendum. I'm surprised that your surprise last time didn't lead to you considering that your sampling may not reflect broader public opinion.

The last referendum was fairly close (55.3% to 44.7%), and a not insignificant portion of stay voters voted that way because they didn't want to lose access to the EU shared market. Over 60% of Scots voted against brexit, so I think they have a right to feel like they've been victims of a bait and switch.

Collateral Damage posted:The last referendum was fairly close (55.3% to 44.7%), and a not insignificant portion of stay voters voted that way because they didn't want to lose access to the EU shared market. And a third of Scottish Nationalists voted to leave the EU. However this is a conversation best suited to the Scotpol thread. Grab a flag and join us there.

https://twitter.com/leLab_E1/status/847076256550195200 Manuel Valls wants to "find some compromise with the right-wing group in parliament" if Fillon wins the election.

This is going to be a reenactment of Trumpcare only in the end instead of maintaining the status quo there's no healthcare at all. Looking forward to Boris Johnson's shenanigans and Farage's regular snipes. Repeal & Replace the EU! Repeal & Replace the EU! Repeal & Replace the EU! Oh poo poo, we won? What now?

One part of me hope Valls endorsing Macron is part of some ultra deep strategy, making Macron loose votes because people hate Valls, and making Hamon even more isolated so he drops out in favor of Mélanchon. But then I remember those fuckers only care about their comfy seats and would sell their soul to the devil if it meant one more mandate.
