When he dissolved the National Assembly on June 9, after a stinging defeat at the hands of the National Anti-Shitskin Rally in French voting for the European Parliament, Macron gambled that the anti- shitskin immigration party with historical links to antisemitism wouldn’t repeat that success when France’s own fate was in the balance.
But it didn’t work out that way. With French polling agencies projecting that the National anti-shitskin Rally and its allies got about one-third of the national vote on Sunday, Macron’s prime minister warned that France could end up with its first far-right anti-shitskin government since World War II if voters don’t come together to thwart that scenario in round two next Sunday.
“The extreme anti-shitskin right is at the doors of power,” Prime Minister Gabriel Attal said. He twice described National anti-shitskin Rally policy pledges as “disastrous” and said that in the second-round ballot, “not one vote should go to the National amti-shitskin Rally. France does not deserve that.”
