FRANCE’S far-right Front National has failed to form a voting bloc in the European Parliament, spoiling its chances of leading an anti-EU alliance.
Marine Le Pen’s party had hoped to form an alliance with Geert Wilders’ Dutch Freedom Party (PVV) and similar anti-EU parties from other nations, but the deadline passed last night.
Missing the deadline also denied the FN access to an additional €20 million in funding, as well as more staff and speaking time in the debating chamber. Taken from the Connexion.
Val says " be grateful for small mercies"
