France elects Macron

We in Scotland know a lot about cultural warfare.  It starts subtly, and then when you realise that you are at war, it becomes very obvious.  From deciding what we are for marketing purposes – in our case tartan, shortbread and country dancing which includes the Canadian Barn Dance rather than warriors who are very capable of showing you a really good time before flaying you alive – to eroding the nation’s confidence by misleading them as to the nature of their financial welfare (Scotland is far better off than England, who have sucked us dry for decades, if not centuries) we are well aware that an entity claiming that you have no culture is declaring war.

France has just voted for Macron, a man who presided over their economic problems, which make ours pale into insignificance by comparison, under Hollonde.  I think this choice is a mistake.

Front Nationale have never been all that dear to my heart, even ten years ago they were fairly brutal, but it seems very sad that France, a country so proud of their traditions and culture, should vote for a man who would like to see that culture diluted to the point of eradication.

I was in Paris a couple of years ago, and was very shocked at the deprivation I saw even on a heavily sanitised tourist trip.  People are suffering greatly from lack of employment, lack of housing and there were some frightening scenes just out of our direct vision, immigrant populations without much access to resources forming flea markets and tent villages amongst the motorways and elegant buildings.

France has been struggling under this burden for some time, and they have had far more extreme terrorist activity than we have had in the UK.  At what point do we agree that this is not acceptable and do something about it?  You may not be directly affected by terrorism, but you can bet that you know someone that knows someone who has if you live in most of the countries in Europe.  Macron has also stated in the past that ‘France will just have to get used to it.’

To what end, you may ask?  Well Macron is a globalist, a believer in the supremacy of the corporation, a believer in cheap labour and branded values.  He is not a patriot, but like Tony Blair an opportunist who seeks personal gain from expediting the wishes of the elite.

Good luck with that France.  You will think very differently when you reap what you have sown.  Just as England will lose what little they have left to the Conservative rush to fill their own pockets, you will lose your identity unless you think more carefully at the election to come.
