Just two months after winning reelection as France’s president, Emmanual Macron and his “Ensemble!” coalition suffered a disastrous loss in the latest French elections, keeping the party from an absolute majority. This came as populist right-wing leader Marine Le Pen’s “National Rally” (RN) picked up 81 seats, while far-left parties also made gains, which left Macron without the necessary number of votes for a majority. Macron would have needed 289 seats for a majority but fell far short with only 245.
Breitbart reports:
The night’s true victor — at least in terms of exceeding expectations — was perhaps Marine Le Pen’s National Rally (RN), which saw a surprising result of 89 candidates elected to the National Assembly, the most in the history of the party, including its predecessor National Front. Le Pen’s party, which previously only boasted eight representatives, will now have enough representation to form a parliamentary group, providing a major boost to the party in terms of prominence in the national discussion and the ability to fundraise.
Prior to the second and final round of voting on Sunday, posters had estimated that RN would win between 25 and 45 seats, suggesting that anti-Macron sentiment was strong enough to convince left-wing voters to side with Le Pen to prevent the neoliberal president from retaining his grip over the parliament.
Hailing the stunning result for her party, the populist firebrand said: “This victory is that of the French people. Tonight, they have taken their destiny into their own hands by making Emmanuel Macron a minority president. This victory is yours!”
In all, Macron will lead the largest party in the French Parliament but without an overall majority at 245 seats, according to the French interior ministry. The hard-left NUPES (New popular ecological and social union) performed roughly as polled and won 131 seats. Marine Le Pen’s National Rally outperformed expectations to take 89 seats. The Republicans, the once establishment party of former president Nicolas Sarkozy came fourth with just 61 seats: just 15 years ago, they won 313.
All over the world, people have had enough of the leftist New World Order and their totalitarian plans.
Americans are sick and tired of all the leftist idiots who believe in socialism. Republicans must remove the turncoats (RINO’S) time is right now to take back control of our country When your politicians has failed to protect and refuse to lesion and enforce laws to the citizens who placed them in office. You no accountable for theses failure’s?
