Marine Le Pen To Be French President?

GETTY

A new poll has given Le Pen reason to be cheerful

The Front National leader is twice as popular as current French president, Francois Hollande.

Le Pen – who has vowed to visit the UK to campaign for a vote to Leave in this month's EU referendum and wants France to quit Brussels and the Euro – is also ahead of popular former President Nicolas Sarkozy.

More than a quarter of voters say they would give their first preference vote to Le Pen in next year's presidential election. Express.
