Not really JK-related, but some very worrying things I wish to share with you,( French Politics)
If you want an example to see what REALLY is NATIONAL FRONT ( Le Pen's party)
Over the last few years, the far right nationalist party, has set, since Marine Le Pen became its leader, as a successor of her father Jean-Marie, to polish its image, to show them as a more " republican" respectfull party. Before that, Le Pen's dad was known, in parts, for making ugly unacceptable statement like " gas chambers didn't exists" or " Nazi France's invasion was not so unhuman"
But take a look at what a now-former mayoral candidate said!

According to some local activists, the new mayor of Northern city Hénin Beaumont, the FN's Steeve Briois, fired all the non-FN opposants fron city all, and his supporters cames to inauguration within former callaborationist WWII governement's insign. A former memeber of city concil, an ECologist Party's woman, was told that " now she was on the Shindler's list to take the train"
Charming, isn't it....
And that's sound to be the only beggining. What's next? An FN Government allied with the rightest aisles in UMP?
If so, I will apply for asylum in US!

except from Wikipedi'as page
The FN has some links to individuals from the Tea Party movement within the Republican Party in the United States. During her visit to the United States, Marine Le Pen met two US Representatives, Joe Walsh, who is known for his strong stance against Islamic extremism and three-time presidential candidate Ron Paul, whom Le Pen complimented for his stance on the gold standard.[159]
