Marine Le Pen’s Front Nationale has been gaining momentum in the upcoming elections. Whilst many polls have put her in the lead for the first round, she has consistently been touted to lose the second. But now she has begun talking about complete withdrawal from the European Union (EU), she may find a lot more support in the second round of voting. Euroscepticism is rife on the continent, and if France leaves, the whole EU edifice will soon crumble.
The most recent polls have Le Pen at 18% (which is high when you consider there are at least 7 candidates running) for the first round, which places her comfortably ahead of all other competitors. The standard thinking is that when voters go to the second round (which they will if no candidate receives more than 50%), both Fillon and Macron’s voters will coalesce to handily beat Le Pen. What pollsters have failed to take into account is the growing disillusionment with the EU project. Voters are looking over the Channel and seeing a Britain that has not been utterly destroyed by voting to leave. And they are looking inwards to other European nations and seeing the unraveling of formerly stable societies. And finally, they are looking at themselves, and wonder if life would not be better as a free nation.

No.
It's your own blog, you can post the whole thing right here.
blog pimping stopper:
The EU is divided into Net Contributors and Beneficiaries. Germany, Britain and France are the three largest. With Britain on its way out, and France on the brink, the ability of the EU to proceed with its agenda will fail. And with that, the project collapses.
To stay afloat, other nations would have to drastically increase their contributions. Italy being the fourth largest contributor would have to make up an enormous short fall. But with Beppe Grillo’s “5 Star Movement” snapping at the heels of the political elite, the Italian government will find it almost impossible to get public support for extra payments. Sweden is in such a pit of its own creation; having boasted of being a “Humanitarian Superpower’, the mass-inundation of people never likely to work is going to cost the Swedes 33% of their entire 2017 budget.
So that leaves Germany. Already the Chief contributor, the odds of Frau Merkel being able to siphon off more cash to feed the EU monsters are slim to none. Thus collapses the bureaucratic monolith that has sucked sovereignty and cash from the EU nations for a generation. This will not be a sad day.
There could once again be a “real” free-trade bloc within Europe; one that is not in thrall to lobbyists and globalists, one that actually benefits the citizens of Europe. Vive Le Pen!
But he has copyrighted his blog, and so he will have to bring a lawsuit against himself if he posts the whole thing - this could get very expensive, not to mention confusing.
So if LePen wins, are leftists going to throw a tanty and burn half the cities in Europe down?
FREXIT!!!
Maybe a Lefty will accidentally cause a mosque to burn down and jump-start WWIII.
All the voters from losing Candidates will team up against Le Pen so she doesn't win just like what happened to her Dad
Vive Le Pen!
Agreed.
Going to be a bit of unemployment in Brussels should the EU go down.
The good immigrants already did that!! Lol. Just look a the streets in Paris!
May God speed LePen’s course, and may she win in the name of the People of France, who are being invaded through demographic warfare.
GO MARINE !
A Le Pen loss will spell the end of France as a free and Christian nation.
Fraslamic Republic?
Nope. The leave that to the local Muslims.
She won’t win.....
“So if LePen wins, are leftists going to throw a tanty and burn half the cities in Europe down?”
Maybe not, but if not the muzzies probably will. That is right down their alley, that’s all they know is death and destruction.
You’re correct...she is close to being a commie. Doesnt matter who wins France and Europe are gone.
The Brits never liked joining the EU all that much but the French loved the idea. If they have turned against the EU it has to be because of the rapefugee crisis.
Define leftist as you are applying the term to LePen.
