Fights started outside French town halls tonight as they came under the control of the far-right National Front for the first time following dramatic gains in local elections.

Exit polls suggested that the anti-immigration and anti-Europe party had roundly beaten the governing Socialists in a number of key constituencies.

'Demonstrators are trying to get at the Front representatives and starting fights,' said a police spokesman in Frejus, the picturesque Mediterranean town which is hugely popular with British tourists.

Riot police are tonight guarding the offices of David Rachline in Frejus, one of the areas where the right-wing National Front have won local elections

Frejus and nearby Beziers are now expected to have National Front (FN) mayors sworn in, along with around five other towns, following a nationwide drubbing for President Francois Hollande's Socialists.

Riot police were also out in force in other parts of the country as anti-fascist demonstrators threatened FN candidates with violence.

It meant further humiliation for Mr Hollande, whose disastrous tax and spend policies have led to economic stagnation, so opening the electoral door to the FN, which is regularly accused of being racist, anti-Semitic, and anti-Muslim.

Joe Frazier. It's a reference to the Foreman-Frazier fight.

Are you that guys puppet, or are you his?

At any rate, a prize fight from some 4 decades ago has little to do with anything at all today.

Unless of course you need to buy an electric grill.

Does everything about you have to be a confrontation? You asked a question and hours later no one had replied, so, being an ex-boxing fan, I figured I'd let you know.

And, since all you had to do was Google it, either you were to fucking lazy to do so, or the question was meant as bait.

This thread proves it was the latter. Thanks for being so transparent and predictable.

Are you really that dense that you have never heard this saying?

Boy, not only are you guys losing your socialism argument but you are really cranky.

You should take your Golden Dawn shit elsewhere.

Stormfront for instance?

Just made my point. Push away from the computer and enjoy life a little bit. Read some books and learn some economics.

Like I said, take your Golden Dawn shit elsewhere.

I don't give a fuck if gnomunny sticks up for your sorry ass or not.

Temper, temper. temper. How are you going to grow your dying movement with that type of attitude? You are already bedeviled by the fact that socialism doesn't work and now France has realized it. The US pubic realizes it too.

I'm only going to ask you take your Golden Dawn shit elsewhere one more time.

Get the picture?
