National Front Gaining in France

The far left and Socialists are terrified by the progress of the National Front. Momentum is clearly building here and hardworking French are fed up. It is time for a new French Revolution as it is in the U.S. France 24 reports:

France’s mainstream political parties were Monday scratching their heads over what to do about a surge by the Front National (FN) after a breakthrough by-election win for the far-right party.

The ruling Socialist party and the centre-right Union for a Popular Movement (UMP), the party of former president Nicolas Sarkozy, face humiliating reverses in municipal and European elections next year if the FN can sustain its current standing in the eyes of an electorate thoroughly fed-up with record unemployment, rising taxes and a perceived increase in crime and insecurity.
