The new France?

Marine Le Pen's party, the Front National, is close behind Nicolas Sarkozy in the opinion polls. She has done a rather interesting interview jointly with the Spectator and the American Spectator. Here is what she says about Europe.

‘The EU has become the Soviet Union of Europe, it was created without the consent of the people, and often against the people. It crushes us with rules, regulations and norms, while suffocating our economies with the straitjacket of the euro.’

 I'm not sure I much like her views on other things, but this seems spot on.
