To be shit scared about the French elections

[brexitstolemyfuture]

Recent events could of given her a big boost, I'm getting pretty worried :(

Anyone in on the ground to reassure?

You live in France I'm guessing?

Could of... Is you're French as good as you're English?

Is you're French as good as you're English?

Check your own before slagging someone on their own use of language love.

Ethylred your and your

Glass houses and all that.

You're welcome.

Get your neurosis in check is the only advice I have...

Oh Ethyl .. 'your' for possession or ownership, 'you're' for you are

At least mine was a typo Hun and i have a learning difficulty. You will always be unpleasant.

I would never be so crass or rude to point out someone's spag mistakes usually.

However, people that do it themselves first are fair game and rightly asking for it

My friends assure me Mme Le Penn has no chance....on the other hand, her posters are everywhere...the only other candidate to have any presence in Macron.....
So yes, I am worried too.

So do you live in France OP?

Why are we surprised at events?
Madrasas and Immams are financed by Saudi, the home of wahhbist islam. Wahhbism is the most regressive and intollerant interpretation of islam.

It isn't like the British general election. This is only the first round. There are more rounds to go.

Why are you worried about France OP? Do you live there? If so what exactly are you worried about?

She basically has no chance, as a result of how the French system works - if, as I'm assuming, you're worrying about a Le Pen victory. Excellent long read in yesterday's Guardian if you're interested in educating yourself further about it, btw.

But there are much bigger and more realistic things to worry about at the moment.

Just like Trump she has no chance at all.

Anyway, she is not far right at all. Methinks peeps need to read up on her transformation away from her Father, who WAS far right indeed.

Exactly honey, that's what my family keep saying but it could be another sleel walking straight into it. You just don't know these days!

I think le pen has a good chance in the first round. But there is no way the French will let her actually win in the second round.
There are too many candidates which makes it really difficult to track for the polls.

She might well win tomorrow but that doss NOT mean she will win the 2nd round. Vvv unlikely.

The margins for Brexit and Trump were very tight, so although people were shocked, they should've been based on the opinion polls. The second round opinion polls for either Macron, Fillon or Melenchon vs Le Pen are way beyond any margin of error.

I don't live in France but it's worrying me. After Trump and Brexit my anxiety is sky high.

shouldn't, not should've.^

I don't understand why some posters imply that you can only be concerned about the results of an election if it's the country you live in. Same happened with Trump.

Anyway, I've read reams of articles on how Marine can't win. But newspaper articles about how someone definitely won't win have lost their weight somewhat.

What they all said: she'll make it through the run off but not the second round. The Trump comparison isn't valid because he wouldn't have won under the French system and the sursaut républicain will still happen, though probably less than in Chirac's day. France still has a proud left-wing tradition that pulls the political centre of gravity further left than'it is in the UK. The really interesting question is who'll be up against her in the second round. My money is on Méluche
