left and right are just constructs to put people in a box its hogwash i have some extreme left wing views on somethings others i have extreme right wing views very rarely will you find someone who fits either view perfectly. Biggest issue with politics these days is its a football team and aslong as your team wins regardless of there actually policy's or positions is irrelevant.

Now watch all the Le Pen supporters lie, cry, rant, bash, riot, smear, attack his family and repeat that non-stop for the next 6 months, oh wait...

Define what you think 'ultra right' means. What has LePen said that you think is so 'ultra right'? The right wing label is bandied about as much as racist, bogan, redneck, islamaphobe, homophobe, etc, etc when the name caller can not argue on facts alone. Politics has shifted so far to the left in recent years that normal, centrist positions are labelled as right wing now.

And easily led astray. His wife should have been sent to gaol for having sex with a minor.

Thankfully they are a little more sensible over there.

Do you think the rise of the 'right' is going to happen overnight.
Considering the gains right leaning - extremist parties have made in Europe in the past 5-10 years, they will only get stronger.
And hey every time there is a mass attack on innocent civilians, or a native French German Dutch girl is raped or killed by one of those third world folk, these parties will only attract more supporters, especially when liberals bend over backwards to make excuses for them (slut shaming, etc).

Huge social issues in most EU countries right now, to do with 2nd and 3rd gerneration Middle Eastern and African Muslims, and Muslim immigrants. Considering they make up <15% of the population, what will the story be like in twenty years time when that figure has at least doubled?

I think Australia and New Zealand will see huge immigration numbers from Europe over the next two decades similar to what we got with the South Africans in the 90s and 00s (white flight).

A saying I read the other day,

To anger a conservative, lie to him.
To anger a liberal, tell him the truth.

Perhaps the title of this thread needs to change.

"French election, does it change your dystopic view of the world?"
