French politics

Katie Adler on the Beeb with some utter bollocks again…. Macron wins hollow victory with only 58 per cent of the vote ! What percentage of the vote does a UK PM ordinarily get ? 40 per cent… she is fucking hopeless.

That’s not a like for like comparison, to be fair. In the first round, Macron got 27% so considerably less than a U.K. PM normally would.

True. But there isn't a like for like comparison for the Presidential election and UK parliamentary general elections.
 
I always thought Macron was one of the better European leaders. He seems pretty smart, and his understanding of Russia appears more realistic and adult than some.

However, I may have made the mistake of comparing him to the ignorant, incompetent buffoon we’re saddled with here.
