French president focused on education and law and order in press conference to challenge dominance of Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Rally
Emmanuel Macron wants to regulate French children’s screen time, test compulsory school uniform, and is not against all primary schoolchildren having to learn the national anthem, he has told a press conference, promising a “common sense” France.
The French president, who is trying to limit the potential gains of the far right in the European elections, set out his vision for the coming years focusing on law and order, education and pro-business policy, days after appointing France’s youngest ever prime minister, Gabriel Attal.
