Talk:Emmanuel Macron

Macron and Islamic terrorism

In a speech to French ambassadors, Macron said that "the fight against Islamic terrorism is the first priority of French diplomacy."[1] It seems that Macron is shifting closer to Trump in regards to Islamic terrorism -- maybe I'm wrong, but the term "Islamic terrorism" is definitely not popular among liberals. --1990'sguy (talk) 23:56, 29 August 2017 (EDT)

Labor reform

Something that might be interesting to include here is Macron's labor reform proposals, and whether they go into effect: [2] I would have preferred Fillon to have been elected president, as he is a Thatcherite and Macron once was a member of the Socialist Party (and he supports the socialist/globalist EU), but it will be interesting to see what happens. --1990'sguy (talk) 18:45, 31 August 2017 (EDT)

It's the same as Macron saying it himself; "A Macron spokesman said...." If the aide isn't fired quickly, Macron stands by the statement. RobS^{Deep Six the Deep State!} 15:20, 14 February 2019 (EST)

Macron is changing his tone on immigration, apparently realizing that his open borders stance isn't helping him politically: 1,2,3 --1990'sguy (talk) 22:36, 2 October 2019 (EDT)

That's happening in several EU countries, leftists rushing to the head of the parade to avoid going down with the ship. When the issue goes to the back burner again, remember a leopard can't change his spots. RobS^{De Plorabus Unum} 23:19, 2 October 2019 (EDT)

Now, France says it will implement quotas for migrant workers (though they will only be decided next year): 1,2,3 --1990'sguy (talk) 12:19, 5 November 2019 (EST)

Yellow vest is at or near its first anniversary. We should do a recap of the first year on that page. It's hard to keep up on a weekly basis. RobS^{De Plorabus Unum} 08:58, 7 November 2019 (EST)

Seems like a good idea to me. --1990'sguy (talk) 23:07, 10 November 2019 (EST)
