France: NF leader Le Pen oversees ‘Generation Nation’ launch in Paris

National Front leader Marine Le Pen attended the launch of Generation Nation in Paris on Saturday, a youth movement formerly known as the National Front of Youth.
Some have speculated that the name change is an attempt to break away from negative associations with Le Pen's National Front.
Director of Generation Nation and spokesperson Jordan Bardella addressed the audience saying: "There are almost 20,000 of us here today. I think it makes us the number one youth movement in France."
Le Pen used the opportunity to criticise German Chancellor Angela Merkel and her immigration policies saying: "She is facing a very firm and serious opposition in her own government."
