    His sole manifesto was creating a 6e République based on the British system {well, Indian with a titular president, not a monarch.} He would then have called fresh elections straight away.

    The the socialists had pulled out in 2017, and a chunk of that 6% voted for Melenchon, he'd have made the run off.

    But good to see you agree with us Gilets Jaunes types. There's hope for you yet.

    {When my mate told me FI's plans and I said it was basically the system we'd been telling you to use for over 200 years, he laughed and said that was the problem - if it hadn't been what the Brits had suggested, France would have done it years ago.}
    I would of course support democrats against dictators. Being ruled by decree as the French are is no way for a supposedly significant nation to carry on.

    Mind you, I do suspect a large number of the Gilets Jaunes are only there because they want to retire on full pay at 55. Idle commie frog swine.

    No. That's what the current strikes are about.

    The GJs morphed from a fuel tax complaint into a general condemnation of Macron's use of ordnances to rule by decree when it had only been introduced by de Gaulle as an Algerian war measure only to be used in national security cases.

    I whipped up this film in an afternoon when I got there last Jan. After that poor boxer got nicked for standing up for an innocent young lady battered by the CRS.
