jean-claude: i expect it will not be the case. i do not think the extremes would be president, because it does not correspond to the position of the overall french people. the problem that we have is a two round election, which is very special. but my own understanding is that this will not be the decision of the french people. that being said, it calls for the appropriate lucidity of all are thers, which sovereign in any democracy. so we have to be fully conscious that it is the sovereign which could decide, and the stakes are enormous. francine: do you worry more about italy? once the french presidential elections are over, and let's say we do not have an ugly surprise, what does it look like five years from now in italy? jean-claude: i expect the result in france would be more or less in line with what has happened in the netherlands, and i would expect the same in italy. when you are not the french -- i know it is also a majority in italy -- the majority do not want to quit europe. there is a very strong majority to remain in

macron and jean—luc melenchon. 0ne francois fillon, emmanuel macron and jean—luc melenchon. one of the key factors in this election, i think, is going to be to see how much tactical voting goes on. because there will be some people, but how many we don't know, who are tempted to vote for marine le pen but will in fact vote for francois fillon, in order to keep out emmanuel macron. at the other end of the spectrum there will be people who want to vote forjean—luc melenchon but will say no, we will vote for emmanuel macron in order to prevent marine le pen and francois fillon going through. it's an points out that this election will hinge. we have our correspondence out and about at all of the headquarters of the main candidates this evening. let's go around the country and visit some of them. first in the calais region. what kind of day have you had there, catty adler? ican i can tell you it's pretty full linear but pretty full outside as well. a lot of the party faithful queueing and shouting their support for

far left candidate jean-luc melenchon has almost been inspired from star trek. a lot of people have been using the techniques he has been using. he is arguably the most tech savvy candidate in this presidential race. he is very 2.0, active on social media. he has been using holograms. he already did this during a previous rally but he won up himself last night. he was physically present in these on but his speech was broadcast by a hologram in six different cities. island in then indian ocean. our reporter chris moore witnessed the magic. chris: with a click of the fingers 650 kilometers away in his hologram appeared on stage. in a number of venues around france, a combined audience of about 35,000 people. we are told that jean-luc melenchon and his hologram are starting to capture some people's imagination. >> it is interesting. really good quality. i enjoy believing it. he seemed real. >> it was great, very lively. it seemed like he was there with us. is really it interesting. such a creative way to campaign. how cool and crazy that jean-luc melenchon was in d

that was jean marie le pen. marine le pen's father. he faced off against jacques chirac. 82%, and le pen, 18%. that's why the market is confident something similar will happen this time. but in the first round, turnout was low, 71%. and this time, 82%. and jean marie le pen got 16%. marine le pen's chances are better than her father's in 2002. and there are important runoff differences. most notably, le pen is far right. macron is center left. and a big party with a big base, lots of support. buckling together various coalitions. and macron is an independent. he has his 23% so far. but can he grab other coalitions? clearly, the market is taking confidence from that, expecting various other parties to vote for macron. but jean-luc melenchon has not endorsed macron. mr. fillon has. last night, i was at his campaign headquarters. and i asked some voters who they would now vote for, given that their candidate, mr. fillon is not there? >> well, tonight, i will probably not vote at all. in two weeks. >> i am going to vote for macron in two w

——jean—luc melenchon. it is interesting when you look at a map how much france is divided. the blue is marine le pen. in the industrial north—east and down in the south she is very popular. 0n the left—hand side, the western side of france, it is emmanuel macron, and also in the cities. if you look at the communes that the candidates won, marine le pen took 19,000 communes, three times nearly as many as emmanuel macron, which tells you he has the support of cities like this one, paris, and she is very popular in rural areas. i'm joined now by marine le pen's colleague and a leading politician from front national, bruno gollnisch. five years ago was when we met because we were there for the leadership challenge, you were running against marine le pen. the polls suggest she has not become a cce pta ble polls suggest she has not become acceptable in the cities. although i had been her contender, i think she is doing very well. i think the most important change results from the fa ct important change results from the fact that an increasing number of french people came to u

but they are closely followed by conservative francois fillon and far—left candidate jean—luc melenchon, who can't be ruled out. socialist benoit hamon, though, is being given little chance of making the next round. security is, of course, right back at the top of the agenda. but there are other huge issues for financial markets — number one is the fate of the euro currency. le pen wants to abandon it and bring back the franc. melenchon has also threatened to pull out, but he's softened that stance recently, now saying it should be reformed, and the independence of the european central bank taken away — both a big worry for financial markets. macron and fillon are supporters of the euro and want to see its institutions strengthened. then there's the eu itself. le pen wants a referendum on ‘frexit‘. so does melenchon, unless europe agrees to his reforms. another big worry for investors. macron and fillon want to stay in, macron wants a stronger eu, but fillon is more eurosceptic and wants more control of france's borders. the other major issue for the business world — labour re
