Poor Stanley.
But... but the leaks? Come on, guys, didn't we all agree to be alternative and start wearing our underpants on our heads? You're not doing it right, Netherlands and France.
Thankfully the French aren't as stupid as the rest of us it seems.
Guess the French do have more sense than Brits and Americans
I've seen more American tweeting support for Le Pen than French. It's bizarre.They're saying there's going to be a war and that France is finished.
The Appeaser has already got her well wishes in. She might regret that depending on his views on the sponsoring of children's seasonal events.
It was 2-0. Hope this helps.
Is it true Machelon wanted 100% tax on people earning over 400k a year?
Merci beaucoup, France! Merci, @JPRouve , merci to your wife, @Paul the Wolf, and everyone you know who didn't vote for this fecking lying greedy fake blonde bi*ch.
Think May's congrats to Macron are hilarious. Finest brown-nosing.
Some on Sky News seem to be quite disappointed. Another possible anti-EU ally lost.
Deplorables.

What a sore loser.
Is it Possible that Trump made it more difficult for Le Pen to win. Many thought it made a win for her ore likely.
It was never in doubt, I'm a bit surprised that some thought Marine had any real chance. She won her election by reaching the 2nd round.
One again, the right claiming monopoly on patriotism.
He will claim that this was his thinking.
A bulk of those American accounts are fake, but there definitely has been a campaign from the alt-right to spread as much Russian propaganda as possible especially in the past few days.
yes
I reckon he thinks he masterminded the victory himself and that any candidate he gives his backing will ride to victory on the shitty populism or whatever it is he's utlising. Unfortunately for them, not all voters are morons obsessed with shitty memes, and many actually find him repulsive.
Like any of this affects me. Lets see if the uk have the stones to unite and oust the tories. I doubt it.
And he got 20%. I hope Macron can be successful with his reform agenda. The far-left in France are loony.Yep, Trump's victory stunned everyone especially in Europe and its resulted in people not underestimating the populist/right wing parties and enough people getting out to vote against them.
NY Times has some glorious mappage going on if anyone wants to track results on this fine Sunday evening - https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/05/07/world/europe/france-election-results-maps.html?_r=0
Speak for yourself.
So relieved
Only 35 percent of the French electorate wants a racist president.
It's depressing that we're actually relieved by this.

I hope he can implement some beneficial policies for the voters and communities that his predecessors overlooked. Otherwise it's just five more years of the same old.
Just wait till Macron meets Merkel, then you'll see some worship.

how exactly will that work?No doubt.
Maybe the marginal tax rate being 100%?
It's called bonded servitude.
Saw this deplorable's tweet.
Le Pen is trying to reinvent herself once again. And now hoping to unite the far left and right as anti establishment
I think her father got only 20% in 2002 (but with a bigger turnout.)
It still makes no sense at all, one can easily set up companies to recieve fee for services at whatever that rate comes in at.
I skipped through after 2-0 - couldn't care less - first time I've said that - France won!!
To be fair she's less extreme than her father.
