France: Public Support for Rightwing ‘Call to Arms’

“A Harris Interactive opinion poll for LCI showed 58 per cent of French voters polled supported the military officers who signed the controversial declaration, compared with 42 per cent who were opposed. 

Among respondents who said they supported a political party, 86 per cent of RN [Rassemblement National] sympathisers backed the soldiers. For the centre-right Les Républicains party, support was at 71 per cent, and even in Macron’s La République en Marche party it was at 46 per cent.”
