“Hi, it’s Leo, what does it say?”

This Tuesday, July 2, the French football team is in the quarter-finals of Euro 2024. Despite 17 shots off target, the Blues snatched their qualification at the very end of the match against Belgium (1-0), once again thanks to an own goal by an opposing defender. France will face Portugal on Friday, July 5 at 9 p.m.

To prevent the National Rally from governing after the second round of legislative elections on Sunday, July 7, anything seems imaginable. Some left-wing leaders are pushing for an alliance with centrists. Current Prime Minister Gabriel Attal is calling for the creation of a “plural National Assembly”. Meanwhile, withdrawals to block the far right continue.

And then they announced that they had been working on it since the European elections… Twenty rappers revealed their collaboration against the RN, Monday evening at midnight. Akhenaton, Pit Bacardi, Fianso and Soso Maness are on “No pasarán”. A rather uneven title, and sometimes with borderline references, where the performers give the impression of having come together in a hurry, without sorting out their punchlines.
