I would like to know how you understand it, because it doesn't seem all that controversial a quote to me.

The FN is a party which has the right to present itself and which contests some Republican values.

Sounds like praise to me... if i've understood.

Just looking through posts from around this time last year. Some of our predictions about Candidate Hollande and the election in general are hilarious.

A stream of France 2. Their election program's just started.

BBC News has an English language news special at 7:30 French time (6:30 UK) and i'm assuming it'll be on BBC World as well.

And what do all those youngs are chanting?

WE HAVE WON! WE HAVE WON! WE HAVE WON!

...?

No, they are chanting:

SARKO T'ES FOUTU! SARKO T'ES FOUTU! SARKO T'ES FOUTU!

(way to say: you're done/over/out)

And well, they can also have a Yael Naïm concert show for free right now ^^, amongst other singers...

Thought it was hearing "SARKO! C'est fini!"

Remember 2009 when these guys were nearly beaten by the Greens? Tonight's win is incredible.

They're not Irish flags, but rather those of Côte d'Ivoire - Francophone Africa will have given some attention to the results.

Ha! Daily Mail columnist and generally terrible person Richard Waghorne (who harkened back to the proud roots of the Mail by endorsing LePen) was whining on Twitter about the "Irish" flags been flown.

Even Italian would've been a better guess.

Jean Sarkozy looks like an arrogant stupid young rich asshole (which is what he probably is). Thomas Hollande looks like a naive lefty student. Two living stereotypes.

Definitely their father's sons then.

One more week and...

Sarkozy would have been re-elected.





Wink

One more week and...

Jon Huntsman would have tied with Mitt Romney in the NH primary.

Now that one is sad.

Now this is something i'd love to see on Trafalgar Square. Alas, the British are less fun.
