“Contrary to what everyone thinks, in my family, we didn't talk about politics at home.”
“People have said I'm a puppet, an instrument of my grandfather, but I think they quickly realised that I'm my own person, that I have autonomy in my actions. I think they rapidly realised I could look after myself.”
“In France, when there was a war, we fought and our ancestors fought, though many had real reason to flee the Germans.”
“I'm fighting for Marine Le Pen to become president.”
“Now, there's a desire for order, authority coming from a feeling that society has gone too far to the side of individualism and liberalism.”
“I am proud to wear the name Le Pen.”
“We are not a land of Islam. In our country, we don't wear djellaba clothing, we don't wear a veil, and we don't impose cathedral-sized mosques.”
“If I went into politics, it's because I grew up in a political atmosphere.”
“I am happy to the spokeswoman for this French youth that tomorrow will be spearhead new hope in the shape of the National Front.”
“We are not racists or extremists in the Front National. We are people who love our country.”
“French people should be prioritised; clandestine immigrants get 100 per cent refund on healthcare while two-thirds of French people can't afford medical help. Charity begins at home.”
“No one is attacking Islam, as such. We accept that there is a large French-born Islamic population in France who have a right to be here. The FN is not a racist or Islamophobic party.”
“In my grandfather's time, the FN was founded largely as an anti-Communist party.”
“I've been a National Front member since I was 17, and active supporter for a long time.”
“What unites us is an unconditional love for France.”
“Marine Le Pen belongs to her generation, I belong to mine. I got into politics for Marine Le Pen and with her as party leader.”
“I'm not obsessed with the rights of women; it can be a bit excessive. I want to put men and women on an equal footing. I think we are equal but different.”
“In the family, no one is ever pushed. I came to politics spontaneously; there was no obligation. It has to happen naturally.”
“We can see that immigration has become favorable terrain for the development of Islamism.”
“A form of protectionism should be enforced at national level, at least on strategic areas such as agriculture.”
