Forward, science?

Party of the recently elected President of France Emmanuel Macron "Forward, Republic!" (Fr. La République en marche!) According to the results of the second round of parliamentary elections, a convincing majority in the National Assembly of France: 311 seats out of 567.

This fantastic success of the party, which has existed for only less than a year, undoubtedly, means carte blanche to President Macron and its supporters to carry out many long-term reforms in the economy and public life of France.

Compared to 2012, the representative office of the Socialist Party, which had to date with a majority of 280 seats, has decreased by more than 8 times - to 34 mandates. The representative office of the right (the current Les Républicains party) also decreased by almost 2 times - from 194 to 101 mandates, while the representative office of the National Front, the Le Pen party, has increased by 4 times, and now it will be represented in the National Assembly not two, but eight deputies.
