Anders Vistisen, of the Danish People’s Party, criticised the newly-elected President as he said it would lead to “horror visions” of Europe’s future coming true. The Danish MEP said: “The French Presidential elections are just finished. “First and foremost it’s good form to say congratulations to President Macron on his victory, but at the same time, the most important election in France is ahead - France’s Parliamentary elections. “To be honest it looks like the most important thing for Macron was winning the Presidential elections.

“It looks like it will be very difficult for him to win the French Parliamentary elections. That is both good and bad. “Good because Macron is a radical super European who will probably lead EU in a direction which means it will become more of a federal state, shared defence, new treaties, more integration and the road towards the United States of Europe. “So with all of these horror visions for Europe, it is a good thing it doesn’t look like Macron will get the powers [he wants].” Despite adding it was good for Europe, Mr Vistisen expressed concern over France’s future with the Eurocentric politician at the helm. He said: “It is bad when looking at the many problems facing France. Problems with immigrations, problems with terrorism, problems with the security in France.

We can only fear the worst and hope for the best.” Mr Vistisen has previously warned Brussels could try to use Brexit as an excuse to create an EU army. Speaking exclusively to Express.co.uk the anti-EU politician said a military alliance within the bloc would be a “bad signal” to send to Europe’s allies. Urging Brussels to not punish Britain for voting to leave the bloc, Mr Vistisen said: “Especially on the security front I think we are jeopardising a very special relationship with the Britain.
