controversial. marine le pen once a political outsider now breathing down the neck of the establishment challenging patriarchy in politics her popularity rising is all stare at me in joblessness batter europe. in multiculturalism graveyard where social unrest is rife could she meet the way she have the strength to save the sinking ship to return from simple pleasure. from conflicts in colonialism culture shock under brussels bankruptcy we talked to the leading woman in french politics. going to be dealt with that as european parliament committee almost unanimously voted to lift your immunity because of alleged racist statements you made three years ago why now and why is the parliament so united in this question. this is new home for you and you that's

a truth is that censorship reigns in france and we are hunted down in all circumstances because we express an opinion that is different from the one way track of thinkings developed by the european union and also by the socialist party in the right wing parties in france have been hunted down for saying i think it's not normal that prayers should be allowed to take place right in the middle of the street blocking traffic it was a territorial occupation that is unacceptable it's the law and yet i'm being hunted down for having said this it's not a big deal it's a source of pride for me to be hunted down by the system. more than. to feel less secure because of that nor some reason but most no i don't feel any less safe but still it shows that although france bends a lot of time preaching freedom to the entire world it should probably deal with its own issues first but. we said does it mean that your attempt to fight the e.u. system from within as you said you were doing has failed to insist in the end. no i

don't think so i think next year's european elections are going to be a huge up people because patriotic parties like my own are growing in popularity in all countries across europe all peoples are starting to reject the european union which is a deeply undemocratic system that is failed and i think the majority in the european parliament can change next year and it's. which i think will be a good thing if you look so your own popularity continues to grow i mean i grew up in paris and i remember when i was a child the national front was really a marginal party that didn't have much support and now it really has become they think france's third biggest party why do you think you've become so popular now. the third maybe even the second maybe even when the european elections come around the number one party i think we're really moving towards taking power that's what i

want you know i'm not here is a bystander i'm here to come into power and apply the ideas that are mine and that i can see are already being applied in other countries around the world i think it's just a matter of it all coming together since a lot of french people are starting to realise that everything's a national front predicted came through on the subject of the risks with immigration on the economic model but it's been imported from and imposed by the united states meaning the older liberal model which destroys economies and denies the people the riches that they have selves have created and denies nations their sovereignty their you are and so consequently with each passing day realising the national front predictions were correct more and more french people are taking an interest in the solutions used and hearing to the solutions we offer. well having said that your opponents say then use popular now because of the

european union's problems not because she's actually contributing anything positive to any positive change in france. yes of course but that's not true and they know that because of partial legislative election we've just passed the national front came second so we're not just a protest party against the establishment anymore some where a real party of people who vote for the national front so that we apply our you. people couldn't so that we win the election is not just to show discontent or despair as our political opponents would have it pretty it's pretty going to run for president in the next election. will. yes well i mean if the board if first of all if the national front party members trust me enough to invest in me as a presidential candidate. and want to know for sure. and i think that we're going

to take our i think we'll make it in the next ten years which means that might be in two thousand and seventeen or it might be the next time. the system thought up by the union for a popular movement the socialist party established system is clearly collapsing and i spend my whole life working on what happens next by which i mean on rebuilding a system that is respectful of democracy respectful of justice. full of the offering to the most which all means the freedom of the people who. i don't do in poland likes to say that things are go and get pretty special and then under sarkozy because things back then were so bad that he can only make a bit of a progress. mother. the reality is that things are getting worse and worse and these two movements when she turned one of the world's richest countries to to

france into a bankrupt country with a rocketing unemployment rate with poverty that continues to rise and a real feeling of despair but with a culture that is collapsing it's important to talk about this in life it's not just the material aspect there's also a feeling of belonging to a people a desire to defend one's culture and identity and identity that is so respected across the world everywhere except by the french elite don't. says so. so you say friends would be much better off without the european union i said later survey and it's true that sixty percent of french people think that e.u. is heading in the wrong direction but only thirty four will vote for francis exit from the e.u. what do you read in the speakers who listen to that. well first you need to understand that there is no debate in france defending the european union and the euro the single currency that was imposed on us almost feels like the bending of

religion it means there's no exchange of arguments and to be against the euro is a sort of blasphemy i'm asking for a referendum because surveys are great but i remember when we were out start on the european constitution and the surveys said that a vast majority of the french people were for this constitution actually fifty five percent voted against it so we need to organize the debate we need a referendum and to ask the french what they think about throwing open the borders with about this currency that destroyed our economy about european directives taken precedence over our own constitution which is a manifestation of the sovereign people these are real questions that have not yet been asking friends and i'm convinced that if they have been asked the french would make the decision to take back their freedom. it seems a ploy imagine you're the president you have the referendum and it turns out that most french people want to stay in the european union would you change your policy

on accepting take you with immunity and would. you know. in those conditions i would try to negotiate you know i am infinitely respectful of the desires of the people i think the only solver in here is the people consequently if i hold a referendum of the people don't follow me then of course i'll submit to the people's decision but i would try to defend france's interests within the e.u. because to. dave francis interests are not being looked after we submit to the demands of germany a country that defends its own interests we can't begrudge them but our interests and their is are contradictory. would you still like french to leave shang get close to change and. yes yes of course of course and i think the number one right for a country is the right to decide who can enter i remain on your territory and yet today we have no borders we are subject to absolutely massive levels of immigration

this which is utterly destructive including the national cohesion and our ability to live side by thought it'd. be immigration that comes from africa from north africa it's been going on for quite a long time but now with how can i put it accompanied by a new type of mass immigration which is immigration by the roma coming from eastern europe we now need to be reasonable and get our borders back to say means police borders and check points like before will come of all we would like before yes yes i think freedom for people comes from control over its borders not just in terms of human traffic by the way but also in terms of capital flow and also products were at a hotel full of open doors where everybody can come in and do whatever he likes sell whatever he likes there you go i think preserving and protecting france's interests begins with control that doesn't mean we close the borders it means we control the borders we open them if we want to open them and we close them if we want to close them and in that way we can protect the economy and the well being of our country.

so i was thinking even if the european community or the e.u. cease to exist globalization is something much bigger and deeper and wider than us it's an irreversible perseus so it isn't like be going to games to flow things with this whole border thing and then it completely cools no no i don't agree globalization is a backward step but nobody ever said it was something we couldn't monitor them. all the countries in the world apart from be e.u. defend themselves against globalization saw they try to keep it in check they control it they cloak of voters on imports they put customs duties on things to defend their products to me i cannot mix actors that are essential to their independence we're the only ones who don't do it and so consequently it's not about denying that globalization is happening it's about getting france into a position where it can defend itself against globalization and to set some playing rules there's not a single game in the world that doesn't have rules and today globalization and the

e.u. is completely deregulated only i mean that we see the consequences are a catastrophic where the consequence could this who think. that was not a new battle still leader of all this when i saw ninety third largest party in france going to take a short break now but coming up next deserving to the french and the remedy that kills the patient stay tuned.

we'll all told you my language as well but i will only react to situations i have read the reports. to know i will leave the state department to comment on your letter. to secure your car is on the job here no. thank you. no more weasel words when you fade a direct question be prepared for a change when you throw a punch be ready for a. pretty tough speech and let out the difference in cost. dramas the chance to be ignored. stories others refused to notice. the faces change the walls lights never.

the full picture of today's news. on demand from around the globe. up to. fifty. think the. economic downturn the find at. the london new york sank night and the rest of life joining me to make it really.

welcome back to sophie and call we're talking to mattie in her bed and france's top woman in politics immigration both legal and illegal stares a lot of debate and zero as multicultural approach is failing not in the plan has her own vision of how to make things better it is well this is my principle and i want to radically change the immigration policy in france you could mean i want to suppress the jew so he's i believe that nationality should be inherited or deserved so we don't automatically become french just like that first that comes first second i would implement a small immigration deterrent because france grants a series of social aids that are being detrimental to its own citizens this is quite means that today there are even illegal immigrants who benefit from larger social aid that some french citizens can't obtain if all of this draws people in so

if we get rid of what i call the immigration magnets and then in a logical and humane way tell people you're here legally there's no problem you belong here and friends on the contrary if you've been unemployed for six months it's because there's no work for you and. therefore we're forced to ask you to return to your own country so honestly that's on the whole if you will a sensible reasonable plan that is already used in several countries around the world except here in france where for ideological reasons if you will we have subjected ourselves to massive immigration for over thirty years of course you know the consequences of that. i understand that you would not let more again what would you do with a immigrants that are already in france put them on a plane. this is simple so if they are here legally and they have a child then there's no problem to come public well there's no issue in particular . however if they're unemployed we'll just tell them look here we can no longer

meet your needs there are no job prospects here for you and we have implemented the national priority policy of the national priority policy is meant to give priority to french nationals of the same skill to tax us positions and came housing in france this is what i call a small deterrent this is a pain from the moment immigrants have no further interest in coming to france then they'll stop coming if they. see me gratian is also a huge issue in russia we talk about all the time when we say we have to have more restrictions because they can then here's a question who would work in places at very low salaries that russians would never want to work at same thing in france no less. yes i understand perfectly because it's a measure that we've been using since the one nine hundred seventy s. but that was imposed by big companies kickbacks and keep the real question is why is there no one willing to work in these places is it because they're underpaid and

given the difficulty of these jobs their salary should be higher than those that are given today kids mostly due to the decline of the west where intellectuals have been encouraged more than laborers. and working with your hands is seen as something that's degrading menu i don't believe that i think that manual labor should be valued once again because we need a balance between manual and intellectual work and i'm convinced that if we hadn't given in to the demands of these large companies which always seek to keep lowering salaries then there would have been russians in russia and french people in france willing to accept jobs known to be harder but for which the salary is more than enough to compensate. is integration for hued more of a cultural or economic issue they do both do both because the both the

importance of immigration its brutal paula to do this all to core of the history of immigration that it's brought to france ten million immigrants in thirty years now remember we have a population of sixty five million which is considerable however we have no jobs for them so these people that arrive can't work since there isn't and this happens because their people are not products so they come with their culture their religion their traditions and customs and set of telling them when in rome do as the romans do meaning when in france like the french our government one after another has told them they are just as you are it's your right it's your human right instead of imposing our culture on to them so there's a shock for the force and at some point a conflict because the french want to preserve their way of life if they want to

and don't want to adopt the culture traditions and customs of these foreigners. and then there's a serious economic crisis in france at the moment you've often said that just heritage measures that the only worsens things that wasn't france's economy drowning even before this measures were put into place and. doesn't france have one hundred percent of french to pay anyway the community of. no me. no but what i'm saying is that it would be all stare at the measures are a remedy that actually kills the patient who says that without the approval of the developer only don't there you go it's like that the patient is sick and we're about to give him a fatal remedy or in a way bleed him get off school. but it's a major error because all the measures we take now for the right are meant to raise taxes and lower earnings to clean. all of this slows down the economy

more taxes constrict the economy and so there is less development less public revenue for the state higher deficits and higher dad this is actually the good in me don't come one quarter and so we come full circle with more taxes don't produce is a vicious cycle that will and by actively ruining the french economy. if you are poor. ministers hysterically measures is not the only thing annoying to french hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets to protest against a low pass by the parliament allowing same sex marriages and the adoption of children by home sexual couples below is now passed it has come into force in the protests are over is that it. can this. will know it hasn't completely calm down now the french nation must vote better people into office

people who have taken a vow to review that law and gay marriage adoption or in the case of the us. we can see all the cynicism of the french right dave protests. made big speeches. when the law was voted on they didn't do much to change it i think that if it's the law of the people who don't they do but then we should go back over that law and that's something that i have promised to do so if you're elected as president to do you would change that vote of course i would go back on that authorization sample it seems also to be the trend here in russia the russian parliament is passing a law not only forbidding gay couples from adopting children but also a law against gay propaganda whatever that means because i'm not sure how are you going to defend both the traditional values and the rights of the gay people but we do listen also we're going in the right direction this means that intimacy

should remain intimate person sexual life and choice belong in this era of intimacy . however the fact that they should be the subject of a propaganda campaign makes no sense i mean pertains to intimacy individuals and what happens in their homes people are free to do what they want morally as long as it doesn't contradict the law but to publicize it in schools as is the case in france to go to gender theory comes straight from the united states as many questionable things do in any case that today the main teacher syndic and insists that we teach children six a book called dad was addressed but honestly we can see parents asking themselves why does this absurdity were so let's review everything that pertains to the freedom of morals sexuality and therefore in private life you think it's none of

the public's concern to a scene like that it's simple right and in this way everybody can live happily. go quiet who is evil who is here no good a gay man who is. read about the sexuality part of your cabinet he would. go to told that is the case i have homosexuals all around me and poses no problem for me but they don't make a show of their sexuality or any propaganda and they don't try to convince anyone because they are aware and legitimately so know that all this pertains to a person's private and intimate life and not to political life do it but if you could take on that there's a lot of discussion about international intervention into local conflicts you express support for mali interventional was saying that libya has been a catastrophe and now we may be looking in some sort of intervention in syria how

do you judge which intervention in which country is justified or not. but still the situation is very straightforward in mali first of all there's been cooperation between france and mali for many years now and it's the legitimate government in mali that asked us to intervene since faced with the rise and power of this longest terrorist groups that were aggressive and even assassinating people there will consequently in those conditions we find ourselves in a situation that we know from before where a friendly country to come and help because it's the subject of aggression right so we went to help. what is incoherent in the behavior of french leaders is that they fight the islamicist in mali but support them in libya and in syria and that's what's completely incoherent and i'm completely i consider the danger of islamic

fundamentalists absolutely terrifying and i think that yet again we have to tell a tarion islam in the twenty first century there was communism and naziism in the twentieth century and now there is islam islam and globalism that's the to tell a terrier muslim of religion on one hand. of trade on the other and so i buy it but i find it everywhere in mali in libya in syria and then they don't in our land and cameron are presenting a united front against to use desire to stop arms getting to the rebels in syria is that a step towards intervention and what would the consequences be for france with no one but one of his own something no i don't think it's a step towards intervention for a simple reason actually convention leaders did such a bad job that i don't even think the french army has the capacity to intervene alone particularly in libya. especially since they've just intervened alone in mali in conditions that were already technically difficult to get and france only

intervened in libya because the u.s. steve supports in the form of infrastructure. which is a shame by the way and we need to change that and so i don't think that there will be an intervention but i still think that bunch of leaders are under the influence of qatar and saudi arabia who are pulling the strings far behind the scenes and who are providing weapons and assisting islamic fundamentalists across the world. and we must announce that which is what i'm trying to do in my own country to say defend the. friend so that was not in a band way to her vision of france this is saying to you for being with us and i will see you next time.

exactly what happened that day i don't know but a woman got killed. piers later when i got arrested for. for a crime i did not do. we have numerous cases where police officers lie about polygraph results. innocent people to confess the police officers don't beat people anymore i mean it just doesn't happen really. in the course of interrogation why because there's been this is like meant no because the psychological techniques are more effective in up. and confessions than physical abuse they were off taking they could get what they wanted they could say what they wanted and there was no evidence of what they did or what they said.
