Pro-Israeli clothes of Europe's far right

 


Unknown -

France votes for Parliament today 30 June with run-offs in a week on 7 July

28-year-old 'political rock star' Jordan Bardella, now formally the leader of Marine Le Pen's National Rally party, may possibly become France's new Prime Minister

Bardella is fiercely pro-Israel

'Bardella on June 24 said: "Recognizing Palestine now would be recognizing terrorism."'

Yet 'Marine Le Pen’s father, the party’s founding leader Jean-Marie Le Pen, went so far as to describe the Gaza Strip as a "concentration camp where people are deprived the chance to defend themselves".'

Bardella is of mostly Italian but also some Algerian heritage. As his parents divorced, he lived much with his mother in lower income social housing, which he says helped shape his right wing views.

Youthful Bardella has a strong appeal with young voters who follow him on TikTok. His anti-migrant catchphrase is, 'France is disappearing'.

Bardella has been dating Nolwenn Olivier, a grand-daughter of Marine Le Pen's father, Jean-Marie Le Pen.
