      that s good news indeed. Yet mr Melenchon , the winner, is quite pro russian, pro hamas, pro latin america s not so democratic regimes. it remains to be seen what he will do… he and his party left parliament when Zelensky was there to speak to french MP. i am not exactly ecstatic with this left and this victory

      The numbers CANNOT lie. Native births compared to immigration over time equals immigrants being greater in number. At the current rate of immigration native French are replaced over time. If you're fine with that, then say it, and stop denying basic math. Japan, China, South Korea, Vietnam, Russia, India, Poland, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania Pakistan, parts of south America, Australia, and almost all of central Asia survive with none or very little illegal immigration.
