No love lost with the far right lol
But I do agree that the electoral system is unfair, and they will be changing that soon, at least it was part of macron's campaign... This same system that protected the big parties has now worked against them
That system did not affect big Parties at all. It benefited them in the past and it will always benefit them in the future. It was actually created by them, and for them.
And if they appear to have shrunk today, it's definitely not because of this electoral system. It's because they became so similar and so identical, and so boring and unconvincing, that their members were asked to leave and join the new illusional one.
The same people that were in power, are still there, and still in power, but under a new label. What was then undeclared and called UMPS, is now wide in the open, and called LREM.
And that's because those who detain the reign of power in France, decided their tools needed a lifting, and since they became so strong that they didn't need to hide their power anymore, they couldn't care less if everything gets exposed.
Besides, an absolute majority at the Parliament is now needed to get France to some place, without the slightest disturbance, let alone opposition.
That should start to come after the German elections...A la rentree...
