Video of French politician Carla Muti, who just won a mayoral election, tearing down an EU flag is going viral.
Muti’s win marks a gain for the right-wing National Rally, which is critical of EU bureaucracy and its influence over national laws. The party also believes France should have greater sovereignty, including control over its borders and immigration policy.
Several recently elected far-right mayors have taken down European Union flags from the facades of their town halls, in a move the French government denounced as "populism".
Marine Le Pen's anti-immigration, eurosceptic National Rally (RN) party is on the rise and hopes to win the country's top job in next year's presidential election.
During this month's polls to elect mayors, the far-right party notched wins in small and mid-sized towns, even though it failed to take any major urban centres.
Far-right mayors in several towns wasted no time in taking down the EU flags.
"Out with the European flags at the town hall! Make way for the French flags," Christophe Barthes, the mayor of the southern town of Carcassonne, said on X on Sunday.
He posted footage showing him personally taking down the European flag and leaving only the French tricolour and the regional flag of Occitania.
Bryan Masson, the new mayor of Cagnes-sur-Mer, a seaside resort near the southern city of Nice, and Anthony Garenaux-Glinkowski, the far-right mayor of the northern town of Harnes, followed suit.

Who is calling them Far-Right? maybe they are just patriots that love their country and not all the euro bs.
