- Riding on a surge of growing support over the past decade is France’s far-right political party, National Rally.
Formerly known as the National Front, they’ve got their eyes set on seats in the European Parliament elections this June.
Montbéliard, a rural town near the Swiss border, was the location of choice for the National Rally’s second stop on the campaign trail to the European elections, trying to garner more support.
Newsnight’s Mark Urban has been to the industrial town to speak to people there about why far right speaks to people's politics.

France like most countries , the US, England, Canada etc have abandoned the working poor and the working poor are becoming more and more desperate....Just like in Germany in the early 30s
Meanwhile in reality, Canada just introduced free dental insurance and free pharmaceutical insurance to make life more affordable for the poorest Canadians. Very few of whom live in rural areas btw, because there's zero affordable housing in most small towns thanks to conservative politicians like Stephen Harper cutting banking regulations and opening up the country to foreign real estate investors.
Bingo. And instead of blaming the elite conducting the class war, they blame 'the others' that are their working class brethren.
Even the richest person in the world in 2009, Warren Buffett, called it out that same year: "There's class warfare alright and it's my class the rich that's waging it and winning."
For generation after generation old people have passed away freeing up housing for the next generation to have families in. Because of mass immigration that cycle has been broken. Births of English people are in very steep decline. There just aren't the properties available for young English people to have families in anymore. Nationalists exist on the left and also on the right. I prefer the word nationalist to the expression 'far right'.
THE ANALOGY TO THE 30'S IS REDUNDANT AS THERE WAS A MAJOR WORLD WAR IN THE PREVIOUS DECADES WHICH WAS A MAJOR FACTOR.
Edit, sry for the caps.
@@kevinb9830 No he's right. It doesn't matter if there wasn't a war. Income inequality is getting as bad as it was before WW2 and instead of blaming the ones conducting the class war, they blame 'others'.
Not far right, just right.
Nope it's far right. There's a right party in France, the party being talked about in the video is Far right. The right and the far right in France have clear differences.
@@lawtraf8008 la politique économique du RN est de gauche.
@lawtraf8008 'Far' is a relative term. If you move the definitions, you can pretty much make anything appear 'far'. What's called 'far right' now was considered normal and centrist just a few decades ago.
@@skymanifest8339 , to be clear, centrist views are called far right by the more extreme end of the left. The vast majority do not consider their centrist views as ‘far’ anything, therefore these views are not. The majority view must prevail.
Because they are bussing off migrants to the countryside.
Nope because these folks barely ever left their rural hometowns and meet a non-white person. So the far right uses their ignorance and preconceive stereotypes of non-white people to get their votes.
No. There's no migrants in the country side (i'm french and i live in it) because the Local Governments from there couldn't house and feed them if they had some. Most migrants in France are sent to big cities.
@@lt8566 What a liar, I live in Montbéliard, it's plagued by Islamized scum, the same for city of Mulhouse. The Peugeot factory is the main cause of this
Please define Far Right. It can't just be anyone you hate. Tell us why.
Anyone who doesn't support open borders and rapid ethnic demographic change.
For the BBC, you are far right if you dont feel like converting to islam.
Any party positioned further right than the mainstream right, hence FAR-right, typically characterised by radical conservatism and nationalism
For citizens it's people who live in fear of progress, things that are unfamiliar to their childhood and have no self esteem and determination to make life better for themselves and believe the wealthy and powerful will protect them, for the politicians it's wealthy people who want to be able to control the market, the laws and the people to continue to grow their wealth and power and manipulate and play on citizens fears in order to scam them out of money and convince them that they are too stupid to make choices about the future so they should just let the rich and powerful make all decisions for them. Evil politicians and pathetic citizens.... that is the far right.
Lily boone. I wish someone you love has a rich encounter with a horny migrants. Then we will chat about the far right!
Because they don't recognize their own country any more.
These people barely ever left their rural hometowns, they know nothing about their country.
@@lawtraf8008 theyre bussing them to rural areas and everyone has a tv or internet
The BBC just can’t stand it when anyone has an opinion which is at odds with their echo chamber.
You just can't stand it when BBC reports what is happening. Sounds like you are the one with the echo chamber here.
"Far right" rural areas means not wanting to become like the blighted concrete urban areas.
Nope it means upholding their backwards white supremacist ideologies.
Meaning refusing to accept change
@@stevenhenry5267 Refusing to except stupid change I think you mean.
@@stevenhenry5267 You mean standing up to the change the elites are pushing on them? And you're a socialist??
To right😂 , ugly gluttony and no investment in coloneys.
Plain stupid.
Don't know about France, but my ears definitely went far right
You're posting meaningless drivel.
Cause you spent a decade feeding yourself right wing propaganda on social media
it's the but plug stuck
Lmao not what u meant but my earbuds only played words in the left side and music in the right
Oh Jesus I must be tired today - I just got this joke 🤣 And now I can't see my previous comment to delete it. Ugh.
Can the bbc be any more smug.
I like your vegetable shaped piles 😊
No
How so? The reporter has almost no inflection in the voice?
This video is just the elite media class trying to demonise the working class for not wanting their homelands destroyed by immigration, multiculturalism, socialism and net zero.
@@lfeb they used Putlers vegetable shaped wig for it comrade Ivan the small one
Similar story in Ireland, just waiting for a "far-right" party that has a more restricted migration policy to fill the gap. That party will win a lot of votes if it makes itself known I expect.
The UKIP could have done it instead.
The BBC is not qualified to deal with this subject objectively. BBC has its own issues with its support for the Administrative State and Woke Ideology. The “far right” today was considered “mainstream” or “centrist” just 10 years ago. Clean your own house first BBC. Help make journalism impartial again.
To the left anything to their right is far right.
This is genuinely a huge problem - they call everything far right.
You get called far-right for not agreeing with someone on transgender nonsense nowadays.
That is not the BBC, it's the shift in the way the far right is moving
@@lfebwho and what is far right 😂
And you and the other far right trolls in the comments are qualified to talk about the political environment of France?
Make France French again
Almost like allowing million if Islamic extremists to just roam through Europe is a bad thing. Not like people have been warning the government for many years though.
Mainland France
France has decided to be multicultural when they went all around the world colonising nations Should have thought twice before doing that.
@@lawtraf8008
Can you name a single culture that hasn't been involved in conquering other regions?
That's literally the only reason they've survived until today.
@@user-ds8rj2vc4v A lot. My own country for example which is a small nation in which my ancestors have been living forever and who never travel across continent to colonise and displace people.
However, that besides the point. A country can't go around the world colonising populations, imposing their cultures on them, used them, import those populations, annexed their territories then act shocked that you initial country isn't homogenous. France is a multicultural country because it chooses to be one.
Love how they use "far " right as some sort of insult
Its a logical conclusion at this point
When, at any point in this video, did anyone other than the people they interviewed (who are entitled to their own opinions), use the term "far-right" in any sort of straightforwardly pejorative way?
It is a insult in France because far right people are basically nazis
@@HarJBeRwthe title of the video
@@elvarsmar2280 lolwut, it's literally just an accurate description of a political change happening right now. Would "Why are urban communities turning's to France's left-wing?" be a pejorative title? No, neither is this one
If political far-left, left and center do not deliver what the voters want, then logically speaking the voters must look towards the right and far-right. 😉
Only they're not "far-right" at all that's simply a term used for people who are fed up with the establishment...and BBC is establishment propaganda.
I also don't think that many of these so-called "far right" parties are even far-right. Most of their policies are centrist. It's just that the media has got more far-left over time.
The left has not been given a chance in France, it has always been the right or the center.
@@lawtraf8008Well, it doesn't help that the name of the left party in France is called the Socialist Party. I'm mostly a left-leaning voter but even I don't want to be associated with that name. Beurk, franchement!
Because none of the established political parties are addressing their concerns and the so-called "far-right" are the only ones listening to these people. When Macron and all the other "respectable" politicians stop talking to them and call them names normal people turn to parties that treat them with respect.
Oh. And all those people "recording the rise of the far-right" or trying to "organise resistance"? What parties do they actually represent? What about them is NOT as independent as you are trying to make us believe?
Diversity and migrant are important than french citizen
Rural france : time to vote
The far right doesn't listen to these people, they couldn't care less about their issues. They used their ignorance and hatred for non-white people as electoral power. The far right has no actual real policy for rural folks.
Is it truly a mystery lol?
population replacement
They're not far right they just have common sense. Enough of this smearing of normal people. BBC
they are far right if they support a far right party
So were Hitler and Mussolini common sense?
Far right ? Define far right , anything against your politics is far right 😂
They have the right to protect themselves and reject any imposition from goverments or global orgs.
Because the far right is better than the far left and less smelly
@1:00 Why does he oppose the far-right? He says "its disgusting, its nauseating, it smells like sewage, its like a plague coming".
Which, as Tom Woods says "there's no need to engage with our ideas. The media or the liberal classes need only point and say 'eek, a mouse!'"
This is what he's doing. He hasn't given any reason why he opposes the far-right. So, he is just as guilty as anyone of the break down in civilized discussion and debate. There is no exchange of ideas here. Only fear mongering and name calling.
But the BBC love that
Why BBC is so left
why fox is so right?
Short answer: the french rural areas do not want to look like french urban areas.
Wow. BBC news can't even balance the audio right .. a multi million dollar company , while TH-camrs with 10 subscribers can ...
They probably have an intern handling the TH-cam channel, old media doesn't take new media platforms seriously.
BBC don't have to actually put in effort or quality control. The Capita thugs intimate and threaten people into paying up with nasty worded letters and harassing visits by officers.
Right so far.
Because they love their ethnicity, their culture, their safety and understand they don’t need to share their country with the 3rd World rabble
There are difference between the Anglo-Saxon countries (Canada, UK, a little the USA) and France especially regarding wokism with the increasingly great delirium of gender theories, the delirium of minorities, of the visibility of minorities ect.... The Anglo-Saxons are generally corrupted by Wokism and the population is more sensitive to Wokism. In France, this does not take hold despite political efforts to highlight wokism. The majority of French people are pissed off at Wokism (coming from the US) and can no longer stand it. This is why the left is also losing voters. Anglo-Saxon countries (Canada, UK, USA...) have a very different mentality. The French are more chauvinistic, anchored in their traditions and proud. Closer to Asians or Russia, eastern european countries on this point than to Anglo-Saxon countries.
French, are extremely tolerant and liberal, not close to Slavic or Central European countries.
What do people expect? People who live in rural areas are bound to be less accepting of outsiders as they dont have much first hand positive or negative experiences of immigrants. I dont blame anyone who's had negative experiences being wary of some 20 odd year old economic migrant who has not bothered to learn local custom or general etiquette. But, i dont agree with going far-right as it has too much racism underlying it's ideology. Nobody is better than anyone else and those that think they are better are the problem in humanity since the dawn of grandma.
Why don’t you preach that in isreal
@@wamnicho Israel can go to hell
Is it fair right?
Are the far right saying that they're better than the migrants? Or that they don't want the migrants? Completely different statements.
If "Nobody is better than anyone else" then everybody should just stay exactly where thet are, right? while tens of millions are trying to illegally migrate to western countries?
France needs far right , strong , anti Islam govt
Geee I wonder
Best wishes to the Rassemblement National!

Reason is pretty easy to understand. People in rural communities globally feel disconnected from their urban counterpart (under appreciated, underpaid, forgotten, with limited opportunities). That leads to dissatisfaction. Then a populist politician shows up and gives voice to their frustration. It doesn’t matter if there are logical reasons for their predicament… nobody wants to hear that. They want to feel that their opinions matter. Populist politician gives them that… and that’s why you have this ever-growing division globally between rural and urban communities. If more liberal politicians want to reach the rural voters, they need to take the time to listen to their woes and then do the much harder task of finding a way to offer opportunities for economic development/betterment. Honestly… the lowest hanging fruit is to simply show genuine appreciation for the hard work people in rural communities do… their work benefits people in urban communities (“thanks for the cheap produce, rural guys!”). A genuine “thank you” goes a long way. The harder part is finding a way for farmers to get paid more. They get squeezed out by corporate farming and then have little to show for their years of hard work. Guys in rural manufacturing simply don’t have a lot of opportunities to do their work because they’re far away from urban centers. Yes, subsidies are provided to farmers, but someone far more intelligent than myself needs to figure out what else can be done. Bottom line, what I’m advocating for is actually for the betterment of society as a whole. It’s hard to be angry when you feel comfortable economically. To borrow a line from Daniel Tosh… “have you ever seen an angry guy on a jet ski? No! It’s impossible to be angry when you’re on a jet ski.” We need to find a way to make sure people in rural communities can make enough money to buy necessities and still have a bit left over to buy their own “jet ski” (it’s a metaphor, guys). 😉
BBC: Bad British Communism?
Because the cities are less and less culturally French. An unintended consequence of multiculturalism????
The far right exists strongly in the BBC mind and it’s licence fee payer!
🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
It’s an absolute mystery. We’ve not seen anything yet, because we still have a functioning economy for now.
Because everyone else has been detrimental to their lives.
Far right...... yawn 🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱
There is no Far-Right. Only Far-left and Right..
Thank you. My left ear appreciated this.
Firstly, lets define far right: Where does the right stop and the far right start? What is the milestone? How do we define far right?
They are still using the 1997 logo.
who can tell the difference?

France is an advanced economy, long past its prime. Capitalism looks to the east for a new lease on life
Wrong 🤣 if it were true mass immigration would be going east.
What happens in France is of interest to all democracies suffering the same malaise. Almost half of people no longer bother to vote, and the remainder are drawn to extremes in almost equal numbers.
What’s the point of voting when politicians just ignore your interests?
audio mix is off :/
why would people not vote? Even if it may not change anything, it is is still standing up for what you believe in.
Marine le pen 🙏🏼
Time is running out for France. Le Pen is the only hope.
economic issues and crisis along with a failure in goverment always result in ordinary people look for other options its a constant in history and yet the goverments never seem to learn. then you have parties who treat the populations worries as dumb instead of being frank and talking about it and explaining things.
What's wrong with the audio on this video?
Whats the issue of turning to the right first of all why should people tyrn to the left all the time can someone explain?
Why did the inner-city area turn to the far-left?
Fix your audio channels!
You'll notice none of those young National Front activists had the hands of a working man.
Why do you think they have to work???? They were born great! Masters of the colords
Because we have an existential threat to our culture, tradition and values. For over 40 years, the socialist leaders have brought recession and immigration to France. We have lost our position as global leader, the national debt is the highest in Europe and influction is on the rise. Appart from economic reasons, France is facing a identity crisis because of the mass migration and the disregard to France's cultural background in the name of ''equality for all''. That's why France is choosing more right leaning parties because they have never been in power, Poeple want change. The French wants France to be France.
Why are rural communities turning to France’s far-right? Maybe it is the only party which ensures that France remains France and not a colony of Mali.
Migration can always take two different avenues. The first one is the one experienced by the original, native American inhabitants of the US when the first white settlers came. The native Americans were just replaced.
The second one is the immigration into the USA in the 19th and early 20th century. Europeans immigrating into a country mostly then settled by Europeans. Yes there were some frictions, but most immigrants shared a common Judaeo-Christian, humanist heritage. This gave rise to a largely homogeneous European culture in North America.
Many Europeans may be open to intra European migration in which migrants typically merge into the existing population within a generation (i.e., the second type of immigration). But they fear immigration especially from Muslim countries, where the chances of assimilation and integration are slim as their religion prohibits it.
The far right voters in France and many other European countries fear that this time, they play the role of the native Americans.
And so far the far right has often made the mistake that they associated openly with criminal racist thugs. But, as the example of Denmark shows, restrictive immigration policies can also be pursued by mainstream parties. And there are electoral majorities in all EU countries for restricive immigration policies. It is not a fringe concern. If Le Pen plays her cards right, she will be the next French president.
They aren't far right. They've just been right so far
Stay cool BBC and be careful in your assessments. Jordan Bardella is brilliant.
because human psychology is weird, we never learn from it, and people never think critically.
natural law is good
And why should the rural communities' people turn to BBC's woke narrative? And why are they called 'far right' if they do not embrace a woke narrative? Who decides what is far right when a community's residents want their community to be DEI free?
Rebranding the Far Right - why? Their messages are what the people want to hear so of course they will get votes. BUT once in power will they be in a position to, or even want to, follow through on those promises? Compulsory voting in all countries would bring a more balanced view and would hopefully make people think more seriously about what party is most likely to make the changes needed for the greater good. Australia has compulsory voting - it’s not an inconvenience, it’s democracy.
You only have to sneeze to be labelled far right these days .
"Far right"
