In some ways it already has, argues political scientist Olivier Roy
“The rise of Le Pen’s RN in polls and elections gave the impression that French society was drifting to the right, a pattern shared by many European countries. Consequently, instead of remaining firm at the centre, Macron turned to a more rightist policy on social benefits, immigration, Islam and public order; he also extolled patriotism and pledged to fight “wokism” in academia. He remained liberal only on feminist and gender issues, with the right to abortion added to the constitution.”
