France facing 'troubled times irrespective of the outcome of this election' • FRANCE 24 English

- France's prime minister on Wednesday urged voters to form a united front to block the far right in legislative elections, warning that the anti-immigration party of Marine Le Pen was within reach of winning an absolute majority. Just ahead of the second round, France's political future remains up in the air as the far-right National Rally (RN) party seeks to take control of government for the first time. The RN dominated the first round of voting, presenting the party of Le Pen with the prospect of forming a government and her protege Jordan Bardella, 28, taking the post of premier in a tense "cohabitation" with centrist President Emmanuel Macron. But more than 200 candidates from the left and the centre this week dropped out of three-way races in the second round of the contest, aiming to prevent the RN winning the seats. While the formation of this so-called "Republican Front" seems to have generally been a success for the government, the key question now is whether voters will respond to the pleas to block the RN. For in-depth analysis and a deeper perspective on this high-stakes election, FRANCE 24's Nadia Massih is joined by Dr. Rainbow Murray, Author, Political Scientist and Professor of Politics at Queen Mary University of London.

Le pen 👏🏼👊🏻
fascism 😆
Only "far right" is right at the moment
Far right is pure evil 👿
Yup..Name me a country in the west not fed up with their governments. We need change!
@@robvannNS we voting blue! Biden 2024 🇺🇸🗽💙 Just like UK, just like France
Hopefully national rally can win enough to develop some real political and cultural momentum.
The hell is a "cultural moment"? You already have the Olympics to show off.
@@soundscape26 I think he means really stylish, Nurenburg type moments. You know, fancy rallies, marches and speeches with guys dressed by Hugo Boss like in late 1930s Germany...
@@user-aero68 Oh please stop it it doesn't work any more, that kind of accusations wears off after calling everything fascism.
We only want what was normal 30 years ago, and nobody was fascist back then.
@@MilenaBlazanovic-oq2iyok, so racism and homophobia was normal back then and we have progressed since then and you want us to go back 30 years, correct.
@@StrikeBolteafc Nope, it wasn't normal back then, what was normal was LEGAL imigration and deportation of those who comit crimes
lol a drinking game where you take a shot every time this channel and DW mention ‘far right’ would be quite the party
What should we call your lot then?
@@peabaseNazi degenerates is what they are.
How to call them then?
@@les-fauxmonnayeurs9887 I'd say most of their policies are centre right at best - the only one I'd call far right is the dual citizenship one, even then, a mere few decades ago it wouldn't have been so radical
@@peabase lol bless you, I'm a centre-left wing, autistic, mixed race Indian & British gay guy, I just don't wet the bed at people I disagree with politically, nor am I so feeble that I need the media to re-inform me of a parties place on the political system every other sentence. A word of advice - the assumption based method of wit only works if you're successful, better luck next time. x
raising minimum wage and lowering work days will be the winner
Dropping the demagoguery in news reporting by F24 would be a first step to mitigate "troubled times" in France.
Shame on the leftist politicians
What do you want? You can vote who you like.
Why? Aren't you free to vote
Winning at all cost ... it's a sham of a democratic process
Far Right=Absolutely Right
THE Righteous 😏
Far right and center left. Disgusting how the wording is so manipulative. They need to call the leftwing extremists for what they are and centerist le penn for what it is.
You people have no clue
You definitely confirmed my suspicion that all football fans are worthless degenerates.
1930s&40s Germany is proud of you!
So now times are not troubled in France?
Will it be a “well hung” parliament?
Keep the croissants coming & all will be well
It's time to vote for the New Popular Front! For democracy, for the people, for the country! Go ahead, France!💙
Hey bot
@abhinaymuthyala5424 Well, an ironic copy paste in every vid in this channel.
Look at that professor's office... someone send her Jordan Peterson's book.
Sounds like undermining a democratic process and denying the will of the people to me
Far left and far right should form a government and implement e very crazy idea they can both agree on.
Sometimes to be liberal means to explore new options. If there’s anything you lack, it can only be where you haven’t looked. People who grew up anti-Bush were betrayed
look at her office . Even the wall has graffity.
Very creative. Looks like her kid drew it but yeah it has to be liberal graffiti.
Take a shot for every time they say far right and 2 for extreme right. Have a medic on hand before attempting this game. For non drinkers and lightweights take a shot for every time they say far left and extreme left. Sucks being so sober hey 😂
"far right" "far right" "far right" "far right" 😅😂
Maybe we call this lot the racists then. Do you like that better?
People who vote for them should chose there opponents or whom they want to stop
Why isn't it top two by default?
What's the point of a two round system if the second round still has a spoiler effect?
It's to make sure you meant to vote one way and if you got it wrong they can manipulate parties sitting to ensure you vote correctly. As covered by this video actually.
How can it be "far right" if the majority hold this view. How can it be "far right" if it is simply common sense?
The majority *don't* hold the view. As demonstrated by the first round votes, around one-third do. That's a minority.
You think it's common sense. The majority don't.
33% is not a majority, but trust a conservative to do math...
Ideas don't change labels depending on how many people support them. Still, 66% didn't vote for the RN.
Through lies, propaganda and a cute makeover.
th eleft talking about the right is soooo funnnyyyy - i hope the center votes right
If they pulled then why they contested in first round why waste time money and vote of voters
To determine who gets second place
I don't understand what's the point of a runoff if the second round still has a spoiler effect; why isn't it top two by default?
Two Brits and a Mick talking about French politics - great job France 24 English
You're repeating yourself.
this is the english version, why are you not on the french national channel?
@@boofuu3145 What has an English version to do with British and Irish people?
You are far-elite
What could this move tell you? in not smart but that looks like no matter what party you vote for that is not the far right lol is just the same old same old?
This has been brewing in Europe for the last 20 years, and subservient políticians have done nothing, only worsened the problem
Thank you candidates for stepping down to save France from the evil that is far right!
lol more like a sore loser and not listening to its citizen. If i am a voter in France I would vote for nation rally after this move even if I don’t agree with them. Such a disgrace and disgusting move macron and the left are pulling
only ever see one side using flame and vio lence
Good grief. Look at Rainbow's office. Was it struck by a tornado just prior to the interview?
“Far-Right” yawn…… boring.
Here before the far-right invade the comments
The person-s behind this channel is now in such panic and blocks comments from right-wingers. They just leave those of lower quality that does not "hurt the leftists" so much, and basically delete those comments that would make leftists become right-wingers quicker than slower. You leftist are failures.
Vote right always
