After President Emmanuel Macron (right) struggled in his party to pass a tough immigrant bill, France's Marine Le Pen (left) is celebrating a 'ideological victory.' Despite a revolt in the ruling party after the bill was supported by the far Right, the French Parliament passed the bill tightening immigration legislation on Tuesday. Le Pen, a three-time presidential nominee who leads parliament's Republicans and is widely expected to run for president in 2027, supports the new-look bill. However, key left-leaning members of Macron's Renaissance Party and related factions also indicated that they could no longer help it, with several ministers apparently threatening to resign. And for her National Rally, Le Pen said the bill was a victory. After the President promised to provide health services to migrants after five years of residence, she announced that she would support the bill. Since six months, legal migrants now receive state welfare. Various amendments have made the immigration laws more tightened than they had expected, with the left accusing the government of caving in to pressure from the far right.

If people don't like it, they don't like me, and that's it,' she told French outlet TF1 (left). You can't please everyone, and that's normal.' Even if it's difficult, you'll have to accept yourself and ignore all of the critique.'

Brad Birch's latest play revisits the Falklands War, which is best known for its reconstruction of a financially struggling Mrs Thatcher's family. Birch was only six when his uncle, who was serving in the Navy, survived a sinking ship.

SUE REID: How will the EU react to millions of Europeans shifting to populist Right-wing groups?

www.dailymail.co.uk, July 14, 2023
Millions of people are shifting their allegiance to populist Right-wing groups around the continent. If the burgeoning wave of populist sentiment translates into political control at the bloc's parliamentary elections next year, the dramatic transition will change the EU. The EU's traditional social democrats, green ideologues, and Left-wingers are losing their appeal at the polls, with a backlash against open boundaries and net-zero diktats. The uprising has grown, and dominos have fallen. Right-wingers have won power in Sweden, followed by Italy, Finland, and Greece.

The collection of a French cop who sparked protests by 'executing' a teenager has sparked outrage, with a total cost of €1 million

www.dailymail.co.uk, July 3, 2023
More than €1 million (almost £900,000) has been raised for a French policeman who 'executed' a teenager during a traffic stop, much more than the €189,000 donated to the victim's devastated family. On Tuesday, pan-wide riots were sparked after a cop shot Nahel Merzouk (right), a 17-year-old with an Algerian background, at point blank in the Paris suburb of Nanterre. Many, including members of Nahel's family, said the assassination was symptomatic of widespread bigotry against ethnic minorities in France, and Nahel's grandmother said she was 'heartbroken' by the policeman's unconditional love. More than 40,000 people have pledged money to the officer's online fund, which was launched on Gofundme.com by a far-right media commentator. €3,000 was the most single donation, which was anonymously given. The collection easily beat the €189,000 raised for Nahel's family, who lived with his mother Mounia (inset) on a housing estate in a west Paris suburb.

Following the deadly police shooting of a 17-year-old man last night, France has sent 40,000 police officers into the streets in an attempt to prevent widespread protests. It came last night that President Macron was at an Elton John gig. On Wednesday evening, Mr Macron was filming the singer on his farewell tour at Accor Arena in Paris, as the French capital burned. On Wednesday night, the French President was snapped arm in arm with the legendary artist, on whom he bestowed France's Legion of Honour award. But even as Macron was hobnobbing backstage, police were locked in brutal clashes with protesters, resulting in 150 arrests around the country's large cities, especially in the ethnically diverse suburbs. The Telegraph announced that Thierry Mariani, an MEP with Marine Le Pen's National Rally, mocked the French president for his appearance at the gig, saying: "While France was on fire, Macron applauded Elton John." Despite the police officer suspected of pulling the trigger was charged with a preliminary charge of voluntary homicide, the shooting continued. After footage of riots erupting on social media in Belgium, there are also rising fears of the violence spreading to other parts of Europe.

After 13 years of wasted years, STEPHEN GLOVER asks, will this broken party ever be truly conservative?

www.dailymail.co.uk, May 19, 2023
STEPHEN GLOVER: It's a sad time for those of us who identify ourselves as conservative, whether with a small or a large 'C'. It's not just that the party appears to have lost in next year's election, but that it will have a long time in the political wilderness. There is also a widespread sense that Britain is a fractured, dysfunctional, and fractious nation in which many aspects of the NHS, railways, and privatized water companies brazenly pump sewage into our rivers and seas. Net migration is running at around three times higher rate than New Labour's, while the economy groans and splutters under the country's largest burden of taxes ever experienced. The Conservatives will have been in office longer than New Labour's longer than New Labour. An amazing thought. But imagine if it were the other way around. It was Labour politicians who had been in office for the past 13 years, tending it was a Labour government. How we would scorn them!What have the Conservatives achieved? To be precise, one or two things will be discussed, which I'll get to. However, it's impossible to compile a list of notable accomplishments, and, believe me, I've tried.
