Arnaud Bertrand @Rnaud Bertrand Update: it's now official, in a just-released communiqué Macron has rejected a government led by the New Popular Front (NPF). It's an unprecedented situation in the history of the 5th French Republic: the loser in the election effectively rejects yielding power to the winner. He explains it by the fact that his "responsibility is to ensure that the country be neither blocked nor weakened", arguing that were he to nominate a NPF government they'd soon be censored by parliament and destituded. That may be the case but still this awfully inconvenient fact remains: Macron's party got way less votes and MPs than the NPF, yet it is Macron's party that's still running the French government, and it is Macron himself making choices on who can or cannot assume power based on what he thinks would "weaken France" or not. It's insane when you think about it.

Bernie Sanders @Bernie Sanders Here's a simple fact: If politicians stand with working families, working families will stand with you. As it turns out, lowering the retirement age & raising the minimum wage are very popular. Congratulations to the French Left for taking on right-wing extremism and winning.
