That doesn't make much sense re France. France in this era at least does not have anything resembling a 2 party system, it has a chaotic bunch of different parties with some coming and going from time to time. Also the Le Pen family in particular has a reputation for not liking Jews. Also the thing about "freedom to plunder" is really not a value in France.

Take away a German's freedom and he becomes very upset. Take away a Frenchman's freedom, he doesn't know it's lost because he doesn't follow the rules anyway. But take away a Frenchman's quality of life and he'll be in the street...

France has a lot of big problems, but it doesn't work like the US or England.
