The RN candidate "even feeds on things that I failed to do, that is to say, appease certain anger, respond quickly enough to requests, and in particular, succeed in giving prospects for progress and of security to the middle classes and to the French working classes", admitted Mr. Macron.

"Ms. Le Pen is the heiress of a father, a party and an ideology which was also based on a lot of anti-Semitism," he further accused.
