Personally I think the original idea of E.C. was good, but over the years it grew into a all controlling monster, ruled by people not even elected democratically.As a result we lost our sovereignty, and culture is next.Von der Leyern is a witch, Macron a mad Atlantist without balls, so the future is bleak.

Well, a big step done.The government is ousted. Not a small event, last time it happened was in 1962.[URL]https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/dec/04/france-in-political-crisis-after-no-confidence-vote-topples-government[/URL]Let's see what Macron comes up with in his public adress this evening...Many people want him to resign, but he is way to arrogant for that.

Love? Hate? Don't care? All I know about him is what I see on social media and it seems split 50/50 between conservatives and progressives.
