French Election

[IWalkLikeHimaMartian]

French President Emmanuel Macron's party is on track for a parliamentary majority, exit polls suggest, weeks after his presidential victory.

The result, if confirmed, sweeps all of the mainstream parties aside, and gives the 39-year-old president a strong mandate in parliament to pursue his pro-EU, business-friendly reform plans.

Isn't "pro-EU, business-friendly" somewhat contradictory?

No.

Glad to have been of assistance.
