Well, the next presidential and parliamentary elections are in 2027 so basically next century, the last elections were the senatorial election in September and this wasn't a direct election, the average senators age went down from 61 to 59 years old, 44% of them are new, 38% are women, it's still the classical right wing and left-wing parties, only 3 4 of them are from Macron party, they lost and only a few of their sattelites parties won seats, the next elections are the EU election in 2024 followed by the municipal in 2026.
That and the fact the classical right wing is able to do that horrid poo poo all by itself anyway, so i guess i am going to say... "meh 3 death, that's like 3 Breton nationalist attacks against a MacDo, that terrible symbol of France domination on Brittany".

its already a fascist country. they persecute journalists who investigate the french army's war crimes and police violence. the assembly just passed a law that makes people that get the minimum social benefits (who are already low enough that you can barely survive with them) to work 15 hours a week for free. migrants are left to die in calais or the streets of paris (you can get arrested for giving food or water to them).

Well, would anyone be surprised if I told you the poo poo immigration law passed?
Of course, the left wing of the presidential party voted against it, while the right wing of the same party now tells everyone they are very happy they didn't need the far right vote to pass it (but of course they did).
They aren't a barrier, they are more like a trampoline.

It's about time.
This is some real galaxy brain poo poo :

quote:

Emmanuel Macron is to refer to the Constitutional Council the immigration law drafted on Tuesday by the joint committee (CMP) and subsequently adopted by Parliament, franceinfo has learned from the Élysée Palace.

The aim is to examine a text of the law that contains "measures that are manifestly and clearly contrary to the Constitution", as Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin acknowledged on Tuesday evening from the rostrum of the Senate.

Now I would simply have given up on the racist and unconstitutional bill but then I'm not a jupiterian big brain genius like Manu

They were already blaming the left for not voting for the first version and "forcing" them to give further concessions to the right lol, completely shameless.

We just watched Justine Triet's Bataille de Solferino tonight. It's a strong debut and probably the 2nd best after Anatomie d'une Chute, but a far far second because that movie's a masterpiece.

Anyway it's filmed after Hollande's election in 2012 and it's just... funny how much hope the left had after he won. Lot of good that did us and it's his fault we have Macron, but for a moment there, there was hope.
