Not so much about him winning, and more about Le Pen losing. A loss for her is a refutation of Trump that we couldnt give the world last November. I am ambivalent on Macron himself though, although his strong EU policy inspires my confidence in future investment in Europe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For almost two years now, China has been basically leading the world towards green energy, surpassing the USA and even Germany. The incredible speed of China's shift just highlights that you can't leave something as crucial for the human species as renewable energy down to the free market. 2 hours ago, lucio said: whats good about a rothschild banker winning?

lucio 5,418 Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 does reducing immigration equate to fascism? or did she have some other policy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Increased military spending and preferential treatment towards French citizens. Shades of classical Fascism but not quite there. More Fascist-eque than anything. Though there isn't anything inherently wrong with Fascism it's track record seems to say more than the 'theoretical application' of it. Just like Communism, it reads nice on paper but doesn't really work or at least hasn't. Besides most political systems are neither evil or good but some tend to loan themselves to tyranny more often than others. lucio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham Broadway 17,333 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Its bad enough being ruled, but having to choose those rulers is humiliating -the indignity of the choices is degrading. Macron or Le Pen, Trump or Clinton, May or Corbin -the illusion of choice revealed -not surprising record number of abstensions and spoiled ballot papers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmk108 1,186 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Wow. Trump fired the FBI Director James Comey, who was investigating any possible ties between the Trump administration and Russia. I can't believe it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I thought my sarcasm wasn't apparent after I posted. Trump was just looking for a reason to fire him ever since he started investigating. The optics of it look horrible though. Reason or not, Trump fired the director of the FBI while being investigated. That looks really bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmicway 1,333 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Comey violated the Hatch act and helped Trump become president. Now he was investigating espionage linked material relating to the Trump campaign and he gets the sack. It's Trump-gate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 @Fulham Broadway I was not planing on paying any attention to the next UK elections, but I had a look at the Labour manifesto, and it looks surprisingly great. Don't think I've seen a better manifesto from a major party in Europe probably since Syriza first got elected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
