Bruno Gollnisch: Political Generation

School Sciences Dept: Marine, 42, is expected to be crowned successor to her 82-year-old father this weekend. Although an official announcement isn't expected until today, news of the Friday vote leaked early and several sources confirmed a clear victory for her over the other main contender, Bruno Gollnisch, according to Calgary Herald. "She embodies a new political generation in the National Front, which wants to modernize it and stop it seeming old-fashioned," said Nonna Mayer, a specialist on the far right at elite politics school Sciences-Po and for 40 years, one tough man has dominated French far-right politics. Now it's makeover time, with Jean-Marie Le Pen's youngest daughter Marine expected to take the helm of his anti-immigrant National Front. Her victory will see in a new era for the Front FN and pose a big challenge for President Nicolas Sarkozy ahead of the 2012 election. As reported in the news.
