Please explain what I haven't worked out for myself, taking into account I've read a number of the diverse press and wasn't personally at any of the meetings that have taken place so far.

So you say that Marcon will make a hard stance for May.....well until he has members of his party actually elected him and who's army would spring to mind.....how people voted for their President to keep her out isn't necessarily who they'll vote for to form their Parliament.

It's rather sweet that you have such a good clear view on the future when others see possible unknowns.

Never was a Bash street kids fan by the way...bit too rough and weird for me. :-)

"You don't know what you are talking about". That's you told then Caroline. I don't know why Rollo is not running the country. Or the EU. Or the world. Or even a p**s-up in a brewery.

I know Bob I'm hanging my head in shame in a dark corner somewhere right now.

Maybe he is doing all those things we; not knowing what we're on about; just don't realise it yet :-)

Actually I never said she would win I said never write anyone off who knows what the future holds, unlike some I never make rash predictions. As much as we loathe her party they did gain more votes than they've ever had before, including almost half the youth vote.

Who says neither of us already speaks French or other languages?

I've always said Le Pen was extreme you've always assumed I'm a right wing bigot...I never make assumptions I like to balance everything out and wait for the results.

'Affectation' - I try to use this apt word very sparingly.

The best part of Macron winning was the very funny Twitters, which led to some saying "It's time to stop this sexualization of politics."

The tweeters were trying to decide who was the sexiest ........... Justin Trudeau or Macron

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D



Makes a change for MEN to be sexualized :-D

Rollo, let me ask you a question.

Do you believe in deja vu?

Do you think there is any chance that Macron who founded En Marche! could possibly turn out to be a clone of Blair who 'founded' New Labour?

The policies may not be the same but I have this eerie feeling that we've been here before. Just can't shake it off no matter how many the differences in the party lines.

JoyLouise

JoyLouise Report 12 May 2017 07:47

Can't help it, Rollo. As much as I can see the differences, as I said, I still have that same feeling.

I hope I'm wrong for the French people's sake.

Oh dear can you imagine it....a French Blair and a French Cherie maybe ?? :-(

Caroline Report 12 May 2017 22:56

Sorry been out for a little while and came back and found this....have to say WTF??

LOL not sure where that was coming from Rollo.....not often I'm accused of having feelings but heyho.
I'm pretty sure it would be a short book in this case...in fact I've given the whole plot away, that said I was on carrying on from others statements but again heyho.
Sounds like you'd like to write a book on it though so be my guest :-)

Noooo, Rollo, I thought they were fine on telly and I am a swinging voter. :-S

Now, Mr and Mrs Blair, however ....... too much.

Funny how Blair used to be so popular but since Mr Murdoch turned against him for some reason ;-) almost nobody has a good word to say for him. Does The Sun really control this country?
