Marine Le Pen calls EU "failure", recommends "Frexit"

Regular readers will know that I have lots and lots of time for Marine Le Pen, the president of the French Rassemblement National (= National Rally), a power in French politics for over a decade, resisting globalism and promoting the growing movement to make France France again.

Madame Le Pen weighed in yesterday on Brexit -- the official withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union -- which finally took place on January 31st, at the stroke of midnight, western European time, in accordance with documents previously signed by both parties. In a Tweet, Mme Le Pen called the British exit from the EU the beginning of the collapse of the European Union and the formation of independent European states.

Mme Le Pen wrote (translated), "Brexit Day should mark the beginning of the construction of the European Alliance of Independent Nations, which we wish for." She believes the vast majority of Europeans want independence from the EU, which she predicted will go down in history as an "epic failure."

Inspired by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's success in "getting Brexit done", Mme Le Pen vowed to return France to "common sense". Millions of Frenchmen and women wish her well.
