Looks like the French have lost that lovin’ Fillon
But given that both François Fillon and Jean-Luc Mélenchon are fewer than 2 points behind Le Pen, and we’ve not had any votes counted yet, don’t start spending winnings yet or write off those losses. Though if this exit poll is accurate I expect Macron to win in a fortnight.
Though I’m glad I laid both Fillon and Le Pen.
