Welcome to European Tribune. It's gone a bit quiet around here these days, but it's still going.

Vive la parité!

Can the last politician to go out the revolving door please turn the lights off?

Last info:
Left: 57 (Communist + ecologist have the most women percentually wise, and add quite a lot to the PS)
Right : 45

Final tally:

107 women (vs 76 previously)
61 from the left (out of 228 - 27%)
49 PS (out of 190 - 26%)
46 on the right(45 UMP)(out of 349 - 13%)

Better, but not great, and it shows that the ability to evade the parity law (which imposes 40% of candidates at least for each sex but can be circumvented by fines) is still high.
