'Shame on you' cries French MP after LR leader calls for RN alliance
"I remain on the right, I remain a Republican" but "alliances had to be built," says the leader of France's right-wing Republicans (LR), Eric Ciotti, after advocating a shock alliance between his party and the far-right National Rally (RN) of Marine Le Pen.
The announcement has led to call for Ciotti's resignation from within the LR.
