WHAT’S GOING ON IN FRANCE? PERHAPS the NATIONAL FRONT is BECOMING a LIBERTY PARTY?

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


This is an astounding development:  The National Front (FN) won a by-election in the French National Assembly with 47% of the vote!

Now I have not written much about the FN.  The French right has a checkered past and it is not pretty.  Anti-Semitism (They were the supporters of the prosecution of Dreyfus in the 1890s when another hero of mine, the novelist Emile Zola, stood for the innocent Dreyfus), Nazi and Vichy sympathies, anti-foreigner not in a good (sovereignty) way but in a bad (mean, racist) way.

But Marine Le Pen, the daughter of long time right wing icon Jean Le Pen, seems to be changing things in a positive way:

I like what I read.  And check this out – Mrs. Le Pen says right things about the EU:

But the New FN is not a libertarian party.  It seems to be more of a populist left-wing party, but one that defends French interests:

It always was ironic to me that the best pro-US French presidents were not the right wingers like De Gaulle or his heirs but socialists like Mitterrand.  Of course a sovereign nation should defend its interests.

I am not ready in any way to endorse the FN or Mrs. Le Pen.  But she is clearly not a Tweedledee or Tweedledum and people need non-racist pro-sovereignty choices.   I prefer libertarian parties.  We’ll see what happens.  Mrs. Le Pen could play on the ultimate icon of French history:  Jeanne d’Arc.  People are not sold on the EU superempire.  Time to reform the EU radically to ensure the nations are sovereign but find ways to work together for free trade and reform of democratic institutions.

      in fact if we (fn) come out of ue, it’s not the old franc (6,65 for 1 euro) like we bought in the past when we became ue country, but it’s a franc that we’ii exchange like for 300 euros we’ll have 30 francs first of all, and do you know that? :cool: asia for asian africa for african france for the all world it’s becoming pathetic
