After the Brexit vote, the new government of the UK repudiated the neo-Thatcherism of George Osborne and moved to the center in order to win votes from whatever remains of the Labour Party. As a result, it is a virtual certainty that the Conservatives will win a huge majority at the next general election.
Faced with a reasonably analogous situation, the French Republicans, on the other hand, have embraced a hard right candidate. Will French workers vote for him over Le Pen and the possibility of Frexit? I have a lot of doubts.
