pachapapa Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 An opinion poll dated 6th may gives a clear advantage to the left wing with 45% of the vote.Sarko's UMP gets 30%.And the front national 15%.http://www.20minutes.fr/presidentielle/929677-gauche-gagnerait-legislatives-45-voix-si-elles-lieu-dimanche-prochain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Trouble is that they are weeks away, so will Hollande box clever or not? It will be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woolybanana Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 He will do all he can to get support in the Assembly, relying on the honeymoon period too, but will have to start the hard truths soon after.François Fillon could emerge as a key player now that Sarko has said he will have nothing to do with the legislatives.

5-element Posted May 7, 2012 Share Posted May 7, 2012 Le rassemblement bleu marine is extending hands to various UMP members, urging them to join forces for the legislatives, now that the UMP has imploded (which was their avowed aim all along), they see themselves as the only credible right now.Scary times?As long as we don't have to see more of Jean-François Copé. I don't quite know why I should loathe him so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote]But all useless making decisions bereft of common sense.For example to stop PPP "keying" 75s; they changed the number plates to disguise the "parigots".Now PPP can coast around with impunity with plates copied from a tractor in guadeloupe.

NormanH Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Often a pessimist I foresee the following scenario:Hollande as a Socialist President who has promised all sorts of goodies that he can't get through the Assemblée because there is a slight majority of the opposition, thus a co-habitation as I said above.In that situation there will be a great deal of disappointment and discontent which will favour the extreme parties..

pachapapa Posted May 11, 2012 Author Share Posted May 11, 2012 The internecine duel Dati V Fillon could be interesting.If Dati gets through to the second round, then she will win, I hope for some tactical voting by the centre -left.And hey ho! The Petainist Smooothie will have to retreat with his tail between his knees to the Sarthe.[:D]http://www.lemonde.fr/election-presidentielle-2012/breve/2012/05/11/dati-si-je-me-presente-contre-fillon-il-y-a-un-risque-qu-il-soit-battu_1699845_1471069.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
