FRENCH VOTE : OUT WITH THE OLD, IN WITH THE NEW !


After five years of the catastrophic Presidency by François Hollande, the vote has confirmed that Electors really do want a fundamental political change in the way the country has been governed.

Hollande failed to stem rising Unemployment, increased Taxes and National Debt, stifled Industry with rising Social Costs and finally incurred the wrath of Trade Unions !

The General Election vote today also reveals that he has completely destroyed the Socialist Party which had 279 MPs 5 years ago, but now will have only about 34 when final figures are available.

The turn out of Electors today is about 43.4%, which is even lower than last Sunday when 48.7% voted.  Does this mean that the French have lost all faith in politics ?

Today the "En Marche Party" created by  President Macron, has a commanding Majority in the National Assembly with about 355 MPs.   His recent election, to replace Hollande, has inspired Electors who seek a change !  
 
The way President Macron has performed since his Election has been well accepted.   He now has the chance and the time to make his mark by "changing  France as it is now" !
