Basil B Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Did not help having Nigel batting for her... Quote Former UKIP leader Nigel Farage sounded a dissonant note, saying: "Macron offers five more years of failure" and encouraging Ms Le Pen to "stick in there". http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-39839349 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bravo. Yes, well and truly thrashed... Little over one third of the votes. Yes a good result, thank God (and the responsible French media). BUT do not underestimate what happened here and the indication it gives as to the undercurrent in Europe. What the far right achieved here is nothing short of huge! All European countries need to take note. This is a free warning and Governments needs to quickly address the (mainly) immigration issues that are causing such unrest. People that would never have voted for what can only be described as fascists did so in France. 30+ % this time and if people do not find that scary then they should.
