Russian rouble. Oil on the rise, trade up and the love birds Trump and Putin giving one another a metaphorical rogering whilst working out how to divide up Europe, got to be good bet. :D

Does la pen appeal to French farmers ?


Not the ones I know.
The eu subs here are good (although of course, some will say could/should be more), although that's not to say they wouldn't be just as good in a going it alone France, but who would want to risk upsetting the applecart? By and large, a pro eu vibe (farming or not)

Be shock if national front France do win


It's plain she has circa 35%. Which actually makes her the single strongest candidate; with all standing. However, when it comes to just two candidates, I believe she will still have the same 35%, ie all the other voters will go for "the other". At this stage, most likely macron.
If she does win, then surely that is the end of the eu!

Well this would be much bigger than French or uk politics but the whole of the eu. Some 600 mill people, more than twice the USA? Not good to see that amount of chaos in my opinion

Absolutely. Brexit minded people totally want Europe to fall apart! So does Trump. For what? To destabilise the lives, safety and security of hundreds of millions. To embolden Putin. Fudging crazy in my opinion!

it's more to kill off the notion that socially liberal politics works, there is plenty of chances to reform the eu, get shut of freedom of movement, but you won't do it, so the far right will.

It's quite simple, either listen to the people, or the toys for the elite get taken away, your choice.

You don't seem to care that the people of Greece are hurting to keep the Euro together, whats the f**king point anymore? it's no wonder 'alternative facts' have appeared on the scene, when you lot won't admit the truth to people.

I Certainly don't want Europe to fall apart, the eu on the other hand is doomed and has been for the last 20 years once they lost sight of what Europe was set up to Do and decided that it was going to be a political union the writing was on the wall
