Marine Le Pen and her party are very popular in France, despite starting out as a more controversial figure on the far right. So much so that she is now the most popular candidate for the first round of the next presidential election. But how has she achieved this?

    Because she is mightier than ‘Le Sword’
  • @picardas1638
    Actual reason: people are tired of uncontrolled immigration
  • @glebpiv
    Uncontrolled immigration is the main cause for the rise of the right in Europe. Who thought that people would not be so happy with foreigners that don't want to integrate, having their religion and culture taking priority over the one that is common in the country that hosts them. And add on top the generous social benefits used by them.
  • @ClipsOfVTubers
    Because right wing is rising everywhere in europe, not just france
  • @jameslewis2635
    I don't think it's so much Le Pen being popular as it is Macron being extremely unpopular.
  • @monsieurfuch7882
    The french pronounciation level of this presenter is 10/10, great job
  • @ohimats
    Your new host, is great. Professional, clear and the voice alone makes it good enough to keep listening. Pronounciation too is on point. Nice to see this channel grow and new faces !
  • @tigrafale4610
    Crazy you pronounce the French so well and even pronounce AFD in German. Did not expect that from a TLDR video haha
  • @BMWE90HQ
    Easy- she puts her country first!
  • @jasepaul91
    People are so sick and tired of the establishment parties that have failed over and over to take their concerns seriously that they now want something and/or somebody completely different. This is across the board in several countries.
  • @JonM-ts7os
    Number 1 issue is out of control muslim/african immgration, if you cant state the simple truth then whats the point.
  • @XeNeXX
    look at the state of their immigration - thats why
  • Because people are fed up with migration from Africa and middle east and nobody else is willing to say it has to stop.... here, I said it. It is not rocket science.
  • @user-nh1yb9mk7y
    Because labeling someone racist, fascist antisemite does not work in a consistently degenerating conditions endured by French people.
  • BECAUSE She's French, Believes in the French & wants to make France a Better place for the People of FRANCE. GO MARINE
  • @polpolik2

  • @martinpalm5
