The Mike Hosking Breakfast - En podkast av Newstalk ZB - Onsdager

Bad news for France's National Rally party as leader Marine Le Pen's been barred from running for office for five years. She's been found guilty of embezzling European Union Funds to finance the party. Le Pen will be ineligible to run in the 2027 presidential election. Paris Correspondent Catherine Field told Mike Hosking there's no one else in the party with the energy to run a successful campaign. She says voters are voting for her, as all the far-right parties have a clan at the centre of them. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
