National Rally leader Jordan Bardella has just made a speech seemingly accepting the exit poll. Lots of whining that everybody ganged up on him and the French people have been denied their wishes. #FrenchElection

The French centre right are to betray Europe for power. Eric Ciotti, leader of the centre-right Les Républicains party once led by Chirac and Sarkozy will announce tonight that he will cooperate with Marine Le Pen's Rassemblement National through local electoral alliances. #FrenchElection

In UK terms, it's as if PM Ed Davey called an election because he was worried about Farage, so did a deal with a Starmer/Corbyn/Greens coalition, which proceeded to win. #FrenchElection #ViveLaDifférence.

MarineLePen is now facing a crucial moment in a high-profile trial where her eligibility to run for president in 2027 is at stake. Are we going through a Trump scenario in France?

The way I remember it, something similar happened when Marine’s dad ended up in a run off with Jacques Chirac to be President of France. In that race, the limit of the radical vote when faced with only one other choice became clear. Le Pen lost convincingly. #FrenchElection

France finds itself in gridlock after the surprise victory of the leftist New Popular Front.

Since Macron came to power, traditional bipartisanship has given way to a divided Assembly ⤵️
www.bloomberg.com/graphics/202...
Macron’s Rise and Fall Leaves French Parliament in Deadlock. A chart showing the shifting composition of the National Assembly since 2012. The lower house used to be dominated by the Socialist Party and right-wing UMP (now known as The Republicans), but Macron gained a large majority in 2017 with his newly-created party, crushing both the left and the right. 2022 saw the rise of the far right National Rally with 90 seats, and the formation of an alliance between the main left-wing parties which allowed them to secure more than 130 seats. Last Sunday, a similar alliance known as the New Popular Front obtained 178 seats, while the National Rally and its allies fell behind Macron’s coalition, still converting 143 seats.
