    And before people start considering she might not be bluffing, I'd add.

    Macron's party on upwards trend ahead of parliamentary elections. Usual caveat: nationwide % says relatively little given electoral system.

    Labour will end free movement but wants to retain benefits of single market and customs union. Spot difference with Conservatives. I can't.

    This sounds like a more interesting 'connection' than the mere fact Macron and Philippe both attended the École Nationale d'Administration.
