France decides its fate
This is a pretty good week for those of us fascinated in elections and electioneering. We had the local goverment elections in the UK on Thursday, whose fallout is still being felt, and today we have the French deciding on a President. It will be interesting to see if the French will actually vote as they have polled and go for the reformer in the form of Sarkozy. There is always that worry that the left will marshall their forces and make sure France stays in the quagmire it currently finds itself in. Let’s hope that Mme’ Royal’s disgraceful threats of riots will not put people off.
You looking for coverage on France’s wobble on the abyss? No better site to visit that they veritable clever clots at No Pasaran’.
Update: News on the staid reaction by the left to the defeat can be found on the above site and LGF.
