French snap legislative elections: Macron gave far right ‘what they’re been asking for’

French President Emmanuel Macron on Sunday announced the dissolution of the French parliament and called snap legislative elections after the far-right trounced his centrist alliance in EU polls. Calling the decision “reckless”, candidate for Socialist Party Party-Place public Thomas Pellerin-Carlin said Macron has just given the far right National Rally party “what they’re been asking for”.

"whats causing people to go for the "Far" right"? If you don't know the answer to this you must have been in a coma.

[liaandrade]

When are you going to accept that it is not FAR right ????
It’s just the right wing, conservative people. That’s all.

[PantalonRouge]

how can that man call himself a political science expert when he spews such bogus claims on how extreme the far right is. just go outside and see the mess we are in, thats all you need to know why it swayed this way.

[jakrivernymphs]

This man is spewing his bugos political belief. Be a real statesman and accept what the majority of the french people had voted for. The reality now is that the far right parties across Europe are the rising political parties of the entire EU and you can't blame every EU citizens for that! We are hungry for a real change and the time has come!

The Boy completely is out of touch of French common people sentiment

[ianashworth]

The panel clearly don’t get it. It is the attitude of the people around the table that is pushing ordinary people to the right. I am sick of ordinary folk being described at Far Right. Wake up!

[marineboy]

The far right is the centre ground
It's the left that have gone so far left they have gone round the bend

[markgill]

Right wing, ! Not far right, the far left and eu have done too much damage 😡🇬🇧

2:52 Where did you guys pick up this clown? Only angry person I can see is him....

[chawenhalo]

Complete hypocrisy. What political party in the last 20yrs hadn't utterly shafted it's electors not doing what they said they would?

[Geilyeduardo]

This is simple I live in france, I'm a dutch citizen, I work here as a Telecomunications Technician, becuase as an European Citizen, I pay taxes, I work 6 days a week, trying to get ahead, I get no type break o Asistance, meanwhile ilegales immigrants get public housing, free health care 100% coverage, money to pay the rent, money for thier 5-8 kids, help to do so many things, while we who wake up at 5 and travel to another city to.work we get nothing of course people are going to move right, you pay high taxes and get nothing in return

I am very happy with this shift to the right. Migration crisis + national security threat are two sides of the same coin. Macron senses that things could escalate in France with all these attacks being prevented recently and all these big events going on this summer in France. Step aside and let the right wing parties in Europe solve the problems.

[declanstewart]

This is literally the most biased news of all time. Even with all this propaganda you guys are still losing😂

[kevinkeelan]

Good on France.
Never thought I’d say that

[paulbee]

Why do they keep calling common sense far right?

[ydsjpej]

If can remember correctly . French folks said we don’t want any USA influence & No to Ukraine intervention . Send Macron to Ukraine & face Russian soldiers

[manojchowdhary]

France 24 calls that Indian democracy is in danger because of Modi. Are they saying that France is now in danger of the same that they accuse Modi of - authoritarianism, fascism, democracy backsliding, lack of freedom of press and human rights, targeting minorities? 😂😂

[NoidoDev]

That (so called) parliament is still far left.
