5:19Now PlayingFor the first time in nearly sixty years, French voters have chosen two candidates outside of their mainstream parties. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Thanks to our readers for staying with us throughout our coverage of the first round of the 2017 French presidential election. I’m signing off now, but continue following my colleagues Angelique Chrisafis, Kim Willsher and Jon Henley for all things Gallic. There will be much more to come in the two weeks ahead.
Here is a summary of our election coverage this morning:
•Emmanuel Macron has come under fire for celebrating his first-round result with his staff, inner circle and a few celebrity friends in a Paris brasserie, La Rotunde, on Sunday night. Marine Le Pen tried to capitalise on the criticism saying she was “the candidate of the people”.
•Le Pen hit the campaign trail hard on Monday morning and took every opportunity to criticise her rival, calling him “weak” on Islamist terrorism.
•Support for Macron has flooded in from political leaders across Europe, including Angela Merkel’s spokesperson in Germany and the Labour party in the UK. Theresa May’s Conservative party have refused to back any candidate.”*
