At the end of the night, France is still going to have one less fascist elected than the US.

Tragically Poutoumentum was not real, though.

What is Macron's position on immigration by the way?

I've read that he opposes "immigration quotas" and "wants to work with the EU to strengthen immigration" something-or-other.

As an outsider it's not clear to me where he stands on more/less immigration.

Europe
Maintain the Schengen travel area. Boost the EU’s external border controls by creating 5,000 more border guards. Establish a eurozone budget, parliament and economy and finance minister. Create a European security council. Hold citizen “conventions” across Europe to discuss the EU’s future and the importance of the European project.

Immigration
Deal with asylum applications in six months or less. Oblige those applying for French nationality to speak good French.

Security and defence
Restore compulsory military service for a month for all young men and women. Bring defence spending to 2% of GDP. Modernise France’s nuclear arsenal. Create 10,000 more police and gendarmes and improve community policing. Create 15,000 new prison places.

Yup. Any everybody except WP people think its shameful trash.


This is my view of white supremacism in general. They get their small victories. They shut off some immigration to one place for a short time. The beat someone up, or the cheer when the state tortures or murders a few people here and there. But in the end they never get what they want, because what they want is incoherent bullshit.

thousands of refugees drown in the Mediterranean every year because of bloodless, sensible, immigration policy decisions

I admire her as a person even if I don't admire her politics. She looks as prime-ministerial as a person possibly can. She's magnificent.



She seems very earnest and hard-working. She spent an almost unprecedentedly long time in one of the most demanding and vitally important roles in the British government, Home Secretary, and parlayed that into leadership of her whole nation.

The fact that she and nigel farage are some of the most effective and influential britons in a generation is not an indictment of them, it is an indictment of britain.

what a loving freak. look at this.

traditional socdem parties are getting hollowed out across the globe, but they keep their status as the establishment centre-left & so prevent other parties from coming up. might be a long term good thing if the ps collapses, at least then the rest will be able to genuinely compete with each other for space.

it's not unusual for 'jupitérien' to be used to describe a person or thing but because it doesn't have an exact english equivalent anglophone idiots have decided it means 'literally a god'. macron used it to mean 'removed and dignified', i.e. more like De Gaul and less like Holande, who was elected as a 'normal guy' and who wound up the least popular president in modern French history.

insanely normal to describe yourself as imperious and removed, as the leader of a country
