Sarkozy v Hollande. Round two

Yesterday, I couldn’t escape the political debate. Everywhere I went I got caught up in the same conversation, in SuperU, the post office and at the school gate.

With only 1.5% between the two main parties there is very little between Sarkozy and Hollande, and with one in five people voting for the National Front, Le Pen’s score of 18%, nearly double of what her father achieved in the first round in 2007, the political debates are becoming very heated!!

The playground has also become a political arena, yesterday evening Iona asked, ‘What would the impact be on Europe if Hollande won?’

Joe (aged eight) replied,’ He won’t win, Hugo D and Pierre said that Sarkozy will win’.

On the 6th May we shall see if Hugo D and Pierre’s predictions are correct !!
