the rise of populism and nativism really, which they rather go together, the rise of nativism is having an impact on the politics, even if the candidates aren t winning. do you concur with that? i completely agree. macron s party is a new party and it remains to be seen whether in the parliamentary elections next month whether he can get a proper group of parties to work with him or not. the other thing that s important is that of the 20 million voters who chose mr. macron in the runoff, 43% only did so because they wanted to stop marie le pen. and only 15% say they back his policies. that is not recipe for stability. and phillip, in the end, the le pen story is complicated. it involves her father, it involves her views, their relationship, the change in how both of them approach the holocaust. a lot of denier history there. in the end, can it be said that the french of the countryside,
