Junior G-man posted:Sounds about right. I was at least very happy to see the back of Segolene Royale; I'd have thought she'd have turncoated her way to EM has well. She has! She's been given a sinecure created by Sarko for Rocard "ambassadrice chargée des pôles arctique et antarctique", aka ambassador to penguins.

Junior G-man posted:Wait. What the gently caress? She's in charge of the international negociations regarding the arctic and antarctic zones (drilling rights, new waterways opening due to melting icecaps...). And of course it's remunerated: 47000€/y + 30000€/y for expanses related to her mission.

Deltasquid posted:Speaking of, what has Le Pen been doing in the meantime? Sulking around? Or does she still poo poo up the public debate? She's been elected to the Assemblée Nationale, but her group there is so small (8 members) that she can't get a commission presidency. It's been pretty quiet on the faf front, except for the melodrama when daddy Le Pen showed up for a meeting of the party's directorate only to find the doors literarlly chained up to prevent his entrance.

Here's the picture French goons will have to endure in every public building for the next five years: https://twitter.com/EmmanuelMacron/status/880374825784619008 At least he doesn't look lost in the Elysée's gardens.

Al-Saqr posted:White ISIS tries to ram another mosque full of muslims in france Thank god for incompetent terrorists, between the failson on the Champs Elysées and Vanilla ISIS over there we've been really lucky. On another note, RIP Simone Veil, holocaust survivor, health minister who legalized abortion and former president of the European Parliament.

Kurtofan posted:what are the odds manuel valls will join the front national in the next 10 years He's ready to write for Valeurs Actuelles. I'm looking forward to his book with Zemmour. Kassad posted:It's the last sentence: "It is not the French that have to be weaned off public interventionism, but the State itself". It's for our own good though! It's all about "empowering" and giving back "autonomy". Are you against autonomy M. Kassad?

Hazzard posted:I'm assuming the Spectator is a correct newspaper on this site. I saw this initially through Facebook and can't remember where. He's not going to abolish the republic and reinstate the monarchy if that's your concern. And there's actually only one bit of news here, his speech in front of Congress. That said, the instutional reform is worrying and would mark (another) increase of the executive power at the expanse of the legislative branch. But since it's only been presented in the broadest of strokes and there's no timetable worry hasn't yet coalesced into outrage. Also it's the holydays, no one's got time for that poo poo when there's sun to soak in. Hazzard posted:And I can't find it as an image, but the cover photo over the video on the BBC article looks too much like the image of a dictatorship, or a an Absolutist Monarch and I think that was deliberate. The Vth republic does delierately ape the monarchy's aesthetic but that's not a new developement, it's been that way since De Gaulle.
