Le Pen is to temporarily step down as her party’s leader in an effort to focus on the election. Marine Le Pen hopes to bring France back to a place where it is recognizable. Currently, France is overrun with Muslim immigrants who on the whole have no respect for French culture and only wish to invade – Le Pen vows to fight this and close off the steady flow of violent individuals. Le Pen also hopes to keep the EU out of France’s business, a move that has worked out well thus far for the British post-Brexit existence.

The Daily Mail reports:

Monday’s move appears to be a way for Le Pen to embrace a wide range of potential voters ahead of the May 7 runoff between herself and Emmanuel Macron, the independent centrist who came in first in Sunday’s first round.

‘Tonight, I am no longer the president of the National Front. I am the presidential candidate,’ she said on French public television news.

Le Pen has said in the past that she is not a candidate of her party, and made that point when she rolled out her platform in February, saying the measures she was espousing were not her party’s, but her own.
