National Rally lead the first round of France’s parliamentary elections: Exit poll projections

People in France have voted to elect 577 members of the country’s National Assembly.
Exit polls show that Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Rally (RN) party are ahead in the first round of France’s parliamentary elections.
We now head into several days of horsetrading before next week’s run-off.
According to exit polls, the RN won around 34% of the vote, which puts the party ahead of leftist and centrist rivals, including President Emmanuel Macron’s Ensemble alliance, whose bloc won 20.5%- 23%.
The New Popular Front, a hastily assembled left-wing coalition, was projected to win around 29% of the vote, the exit polls showed.
The results from the high-turnout vote, which were in line with polls ahead of the election, have provided little clarity on whether the anti-immigrant, eurosceptic RN will be able to form a government alongside the pro-EU Macron.

The leopards are going to be hungry in France. They already ate the faces off of people in Britain.

[jeanpaulfelix]

[GScully]

[ShaneGam-kzkn]

Openly Islamapbobia is okay in the Europe and other Western countries but not anti-semitism. They have become laughing stocks 😂😂😂

[MrMAXZ]

Worrying development, right, Islamists?

[NoMadKid]

They want their pride and national heritage back? Absolutely fine, but the foreign policy should match that energy too. Get out of all the far territories that belong to other indigenous people.

Far right! Far right! Far right! Can the media keep parroting "far right" when that party gets 34% f the vote?

[AsserYarafatso]

Bad news for the colonizers. Time to pack up the suitcases and Go home.

[salimhasan]

When MSM call someone far right, I take it as an exaggeration or a lie

[Horseracingtip]

Great news! Get those far left out of office.

[MichaelSteers-jj]

A poll in France revealed that the number 1 issue was Cost of Living and No 2 was Immigration. Same as Australia, cost of living is out of control as is immigration. Australia is the next country to "fall".

[muhammad-bin-american]

I think Macron's arrogance has a lot to do with this.

[b_tuber-tiep]

Seems most French voters are 'far right'. Oh dear, Al Jazeera. But never mind, eh?

[musicclassic]

Hail Marine! I've been rooting for you and you have won!

[dorukbaglan]

Qatari´s calling 35 % of the French far right. The irony!

[diazvirdani]

*France🇫🇷 still occupied Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Réunion, Mayotte, Saint Martin, Saint Barthélemy, Saint Pierre & Miquelon, New Caledonia, Wallis & Futuna, Polynesia, Clipperton.*
France must end occupation & peace!

[Dylan-qlv]

[tableshaper]

No leftist bias here. Make France Great Again.
