As the left wing coalition win big in France, how will Starmer get on with them, when he quickly stated he could work with the far right?
Right, so pollsters appear to have egg on their faces, the mainstream media have been handed their backsides, and the left appear to be triumphant. If only I was talking about the UK, but sadly I’m not. The French election exit poll has handed a big fat shock to the status quo, as predictions of the far right taking power were way off the mark and the left coalition that managed to unite itself quickly in the wake of Emmanuel Macron calling a snap General Election - and by snap I mean 2 weeks of campaigning – and look set to be the ones to take power instead. We could well be set to look at what a proper left administration across the water can do as Labour voices here bleat the same tired old Tory line of there being no money left here to do anything, to excuse more Tory austerity coming down the road rather than find money by implementing a wealth tax, but equally, Keir Starmer was quick to go on record as saying he could work with a Marine Le Pen French administration, so why hasn’t he said likewise yet about the left?
Right, so Marine Le Pen, head honcho of the National Front, renamed National Rally, as if that made a difference really, we knew who she was still, so did French voters, has been in floods of tears, as the final exit poll in the French Elections showed that she wasn’t on the cusp of leading her rancid party to power after all, as the first round of voting implied she was, her awful outfit pushed into third place in fact, still coming behind Macron’s centrists, but crucially he has lost too, as the coalition of 5 left wing parties topped the exit poll and look set to take power, so instead of the far right ruling, socialism has won through, and did so by setting their differences aside and coming together to defeat the politics of hate.
No one party or coalition it seems has done enough to win an outright majority.
