3:53 pm
of my head but you're right it must be unlikely to reference well here you have a changing rumor dressing room and and and short. anyway it's it's not very funny i think it's fair to say boss. it is generating a comment on some duration which i suppose is perhaps part what's the vision so these only rydell but these the take off to see these of the spin offs on on social media. okay and a lot of people did go for the u. raynal as sort of motif. looking cool people talking about it people is is it is it getting many hits. a certain amount -- some more than others but i think it you know it's it's generating a certain much discussion about the idea of actually going to vote no and not to go dot of our has been talking about -- that's been looking into that as well saying that actually when it comes to the european elections there's much less movement in terms of people's party affiliations then. for national or local elections were people might have a bit of flexibility they might move. from the center to say the center right or center after whatever at but we generally speaking for european elections according to pollsters were interviewed in this article. decisions are sort of quite firm
3:54 pm
up but what makes a difference is voter turnout so at dawn i suppose might explain the government's bid to drum up. interest in in the folks. at no another technique could be called the nash a you can call them if you wish thee only chare video games to kim's. video games video games get people interested the european allies shots right this is actually a sort of a thing like a french politics now as johnn i thinink my client the youth of that cat yeah. you visit with micron at this is and not to the and it was all who is the representative for the l. r. e. and party. in european elections i'm at well her campaign has brought this funky video game sometime. that's not really i'm i'm playing it now and the idedeas u clicked charlie's or something. john kerry yes he was bisexual. there you go i'm waiting carry just l lost t their sorry bututi didn't yeaeah if i was paying me attention mark.
