Did any of those collapses really matter?

Lol what? Putler's whole MO is trying to reverse that 'catastrophe' as he called it. Territory is everything to those barbarians. Of course it mattered. Not to mention countries like mine finally got rid of centuries long russian colonialism

Elections are nearing, just a week or 2 now. Is anyone here going to vote?

Can’t do crap for a while. Taylor Swift is in town and is f*cking up traffic everywhere.

Following the debacle of his camp, this scum Macron announces the dissolution of the national assembly. The RN came in first with more than 30%, and has a strong chance of governing after the next legislative elections.

Europe's looking like fun right now, and I don't mean the football

According to Bloomberg, French voter turnout is the highest its been in almost 40 years. Guess Le Pen's party is going to claim it then?

Turn out will be increased for those trying to prevent it too.

Are French 2nd round voting all 1v1 between top 2 from 1st round? (in seats without a clear winner)

No, this is it. Game over.

RN had their strongest showing ever, but not the majority that the 1st round tease showed. But Jordan Bardella ain't getting any p*ssy now.

Macron's strategy may seem like it worked, but his Ensemble lost 100 seats.

And while the further left NFP won, they don't have a majority. They colluded (legally) with Ensemble to not run against each other in a lot of districts to avoid splitting the vote against RN. In the process they managed to set aside their differences to stick it to the far right.

France will need to operate now with coalitions to form parliamentary majorities now. Which is pretty much our bread and butter in Portugal.

So the extreme left won in France? @Raphaël

Pro-Russia, anti-NATO, pro-migration I read, please confirm or deny Raphael? Or is X propaganda painting a false picture

So in other words, the center has to make concessions were they going to govern (which they will because they’ll feel responsible), disappointing some of their voters who naturally lean more to either the left-, or right, causing polarisation to grow in the next years.

Honestly complicated result.

Here it’s more a thing that the biggest party will try to form a government.

Generally coalitions are a good thing. You have a chance of a lot of people getting 80% of their issues heard as opposed to only the largest party’s followers getting a 100% of their issues heard. It does also mean the government won’t be as stable unfortunately. (Not talking about France specifically as I have no idea about their politics)

When your choices were 90% or beheading like the old days, this was much easier.

just a matter of time, isn't it

someone show them either a history book or a laffer curve. or both. i still doubt they'd get any of that. recent time commies are just as bad as current nazis, whatever they label themselves
