This might be so, but I don't see it primarily as a problem with Google. I see it as a problem with the European Union, which is too much about French policies and politics and way of political operation.

Perhaps electing Le Pen might actually do some good to it by forcing others to change?

I think parent meant if LePen is elected, there won't be a EU to cause trouble in the long run?

EU is an extremely weak political construction if the change of president in one member country, via democratic election and staying in democratic system, nullifies the whole union.

A democratic political union must be based on stronger foundations than just having a couple of sister parties sharing the power in turns.

You are correct - that is what I meant.
