‘Marine Le Pen’s messages of hate have been defeated in the second round of the regional elections. This is a good day for all those who believe in the values of the French Republic.’
‘The Parti Socialiste’s selfless attitude contributed to this result in many ways. They took the decision not to present any candidate to the second round in the 3 regions where they were in 3rd position. This altruistic choice succeeded in preventing the Front National from winning those regions. This, and strong results in many regions mean that the elections were a positive result for the PS. I commend them for this.’
