Hot heads and heatwaves

So, Theresa May is hanging on by her fingertips and grasping at the DUP as a prop in the hung parliament: the DUP – right wing Eurosceptic unionists, formerly led by Ian Paisley, and associated with paramilitarism, among other things: do see Matthew d'Ancona's article in this morning's Guardian: www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/jun/12/may-tories-amber-rudd-prime-minister-leadership

Meanwhile here in France, with temperatures up into the 90s (F), the young Big Mac's En Marche! trans-partisan party seems to be trouncing both socialists and conservatives as they head toward a huge majority. Good! And about time centrists and liberals counter-balance the extremism, of all sorts, that has become so dangerously dominant throughout the world. Fingers crossed for the final round of voting on Sunday.
