Macron's Last Risky Dice Roll To Keep Le Pen Out

Description

 A far-right party in the centralized French system is uncharted territory and could do a lot of damage, from media interference to fiscal showdowns with European partners. Professor Ben Crum, of the Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam, gives the example of Poland’s PiS, whose controversial judicial reforms and European rule-of-law fights have left deep scars. He adds that delaying Le Pen’s arrival to power also increases the chances that other credible leaders will emerge to fill the void left by Macron’s withering centrist movement.
