Who Do You Favour For The French Presidency?

[youngmafbog]

The first round is at the weekend, and looks like its set for a low turnout as French voters are not happy with the nominees.

For me it would be amusing to see Macron thrown out, he is on a par with Johnson and Biden for uselessness. On the other hand from the UK point of view I think things may well be worse if Le Penn gets in.

France tends not to re-elect Presidents. Not since Jacque Chirac over twenty years ago has France given a President a second term. But I think Macron will buck the trend and get a second go.
Both the left and the right are fragmented, too many candidates and no one standing out. Macron is a centrist.
I think Macron and Valérie Pécresse will go through to the second round.

I can’t believe you thought Pecresse would get through.
Don’t you look at the polls.
She was nowhere much and did even worse.
More’s the pity when you look at the leading candidates mostly.
Macron may be a bit irritating and arrogant but he’s actually been a pretty good president.
