The French elections just happened and the far left scored an absolute landslide

YES! Let's hope similar results happen in America next.

It's a great result.

The New Popular Front is actually a coalition between the radical left and the centre left. Because the French socialist (centre left) had seen their support collapse in recent years, they needed this coalition to make themselves relevant.

The biggest group in the popular front is France Unbowed, led by Jean-Luc Melenchon. He's kind of like the French Bernie Sanders and I would support him if I lived there .

Elsewhere in Europe, the picture for the outright left is not great so I really hope the French are able to make this count.
