    “The only thing that happened was this purchasing power bill which was an obligation. Emmanuel Macron could not do otherwise. And we can clearly see that it is far below the needs of our compatriots , ”explained the president of the RN group.

    “Girouettes”

The false compromise between Emmanuel Macron and the LR staff does not deceive anyone: the right has obtained nothing other than to avoid a crisis on the budget, and therefore a dissolution”, analyzed the RN deputy who described the LR deputies as “girouettes”.

  2. Taking advice from Ms Le Pen about Russia, is like taking advice for porn addiction from a teenager.

    Its useless.

  3. Aha! So the sanctions are working! Putin sending out his puppets in a desperate effort to save his stolen wealth.

  4. Madame La Salope should keep her mouth shut when it comes to useless. What’s her number in terms of lost elections in a row? 3 or 4? Not to mention that she just took her dad’s position after living a life of luxury in a Parisian chateau her family paid nothing for.

  5. Oh noes!

    Le Pen and Orban have come to the same conclusion, surely independently.

    I can’t imagine that anyone told them to say these things.
