In the French election, it appears that lots of constituencies are going to 3-way run-offs.
All the left-wing parties are standing aside in any constituency where they were third in order for the other party to have a better chance of beating the fascists.
Macron's lot claim to be standing aside anywhere they were third, unless the top two are RN and Melenchon's mob, which is bad but just about understandable because Melenchon's a complete twunt. He's still better than the facsists but I can see why you wouldn't want to endorse him/
The Republicans, Chirac's old lot, the closest equivalent to the Tories, are just sitting on their hands and doing nothing to resist the fascist takeover of France. Quelle surprise.

Of course, it's fine when they think it through properly, fund it properly, administer it properly, and stay on the right side of the Law in doing so.
Fixed etc.

Also, it's one of the early steps in Albania's joining the EU as a full member in a few years' time. Great stuff.
A win/win/win scenario then.

Deuble standards.

I wouldn’t rush too fast to defend Meloni. It’s weird, in fact, that Mids and Baloo are opposed to her.

... but standards nonetheless, a concept sadly all too alien to the vast majority of neocons out there.

That said, it sounds like these are for people picked up in international waters and who can claim asylum in Italy who would then get to live in Italy, so not the same as Britain’s daft Rwanda project.

“ They will be used for migrants picked up in international waters – though not women, children, or those deemed vulnerable” So basically used for adult men only. The BBC worded that very weirdly. (Edit maybe excluding elderly and disabled adult men or whatever “vulnerable” means).

Fighting age men then, yeah? That'd work for UK too, although most of 'em claim to be "early teens, honest".

There appear to be enough fighting-age men in places like Aldershot, Hartlepool, London and Southport, so a bit of biblical "mote and beam" analysis might be good at this point.
I suppose the one key difference here is that our typical home-grown variant appears be hideously white, probably right-wing, astonishingly ill-informed, and perhaps somewhat uneducated.
