Marine Le Pen tore into Western ‘multiculturalism’ in a fiery interview with US programme 60 Minutes last night. Speaking to Trevor Phillips, poached by Bari Weiss to bolster CBS, the presidential frontrunner warned those who despise her culture that the door is open for them to leave Europe.
Asked about her views on multiculturalism, Le Pen said: ‘Your world approaches immigration through integration. We believe someone who comes to immigrate to our country must bend in to the national community. You have something more like a layered cake, each community can live alongside the others while keeping its own customs. That is not how we see things.’
Turning to migrants who, she argues, reject the kindness and hospitality of Europe, Le Pen said: ‘If someone comes to France and says, “I hate you, I despise your culture, I don’t want to respect your laws,” we will say to them: “The door is wide open.” And we could even force you to walk through it.’
For all the bleeding-heart lefties’ protestations – ravaged by suicidal empathy – she is on course to beat her main rivals by significant margins. Against far-left Jean-Luc Mélenchon, she would win by 68 per cent to 32 per cent, the latest polling shows.
