Simon Tilford, from the Centre for European Reform, said President Francois Hollande is almost certain to ditch EU fiscal targets after the weekend shock. “There is not going to any fiscal tightening before the elections,” he said.

“The Germans are not going to press for it either. They are terrified of doing anything that would further bolster Le Pen. They know she poses an existential threat to the Franco-German axis,” he said.
