French Election: Left Unites to Take on Far Right as Macron's Corporate "Centrists" Collapse

The Socialist Program with Brian Becker - Podcast tekijän mukaan The Socialist Program

On today's episode Walter Smolarek and Prof. Richard Wolff discuss the results of the French election that have sent shockwaves throughout the world economy and world politics as the far right scored a first round victory. With President Macron’s party sidelined, it is up to a new alliance of left wing parties to stop the far right candidates when the second round takes place this weekend.
