Sadly predictable that social media is awash with far right goons claiming the second round of voting was rigged. Straight out of Trump's playbook. Either I win or it's rigged.

I was just about to ask when the first far right wet wipe would start with the paranoia. Didn't take long.

What a wonderful few days this has been.
 
Fascinating stuff over there. I suspect there’ll be another set of elections before too long now that Macron is in hock to the far left.

Think they have to wait a minimum of one year in France? Could be wrong. Not that that's long! I'm interested to see what they do to make it work.
 
How did it work? Which parties cooperated to have only one candidate against the RN? My French friend in the UK took a long bus ride to the nearest polling station to spoil his ballot!

I'm surprised we've not had more cries of Russian interference getting reform those seats in parliament tbh.
