FRENCH ELECTORS FACED WITH POLITICAL CHAOS

After the local elections and then the EU parliamentary elections, there is now a frenzied fight in all sectors of Political Life in France.  

To be quite simple,

   -  Faced with heavy election losses, President Hollande appointed a new Prime Minister (Manuel Valls) who formed a new Cabinet of Ministers.
   -  The "Greens" and the Communists withdrew from the Socialist coalition.
   -  Trade Unions are now defying the Government with strikes in the Transport sector.
   -  Conservatives on the Right (UMP) are in-fighting just to elect a leader to replace Cope the disavowed former President of UMP; this has become an almighty individual battle to become the next official candidate for the French Presidential election in 2017.
