"Emmanuel Macron, the French president, has announced that he is dissolving the national assembly, and calling for legislative elections on June 30 and July 7.

The French president said that he can’t pretend nothing has happened, that the outcome of the EU election is not good for his government and that the rise of nationalists is a danger for France and Europe."

      We’re at the USA obesity levels of 1995, now tell me it’s just the ignorant.

      I mean it probably starts there but with a third if a population voting far right, ignorants will soon be the biggest part of our countries.

        It might as well be, that’s why the upper classes should look for an alternative.

        Also, who is “we”? I’m not from the UK

            In that case “we” are at 53%, the US were at least at 55% in the early 90s, which is 35 years ago. I think that’s a long enough timespan to make any comparison moot.
