what does it suggest -------- the poms probably about to dump the conservatives
Macron isn't on thin ice - he's secure as President - but, the party that formed around him - they are certainly under pressure
what it all suggests to me is that people are unhappy - or fearful - or both.
And people will do what they do - they will ditch whoever is in at the time in the hope that the 'other mob' might make it better -
so the right wing party in one place in power - gets the boot, in another place - a left wing party will get the boot
from what I see are the risks for Europe - probably doesn't matter who is in - the risk is there
the biggest risk is war. For say, France - the talk is that it won't be any different if the far right is in power as far as supporting Ukraine --------- so, no change there
we shall see.

"Macron isn't on thin ice" - sure he is, even The Guardian is honest about that.
"Macron’s party could suffer yet more losses, effectively hobbling the rest of his presidential term and potentially handing Marine Le Pen even more power. "
