What does “far right” mean in this context?

With all of the protesters yesterday it makes you wonder who voted for it. Clearly the silent majority.

“With all of the protesters yesterday it makes you wonder who voted for it. Clearly the silent majority.”

60% of Londoners voted to stay.
62% of Scottish voted to stay.
55% of Northern Ireland voted to stay.

The rest of the region voted to exit around 55%.

Jean Marie Le Pen agrees with his daughter Marine, although he would probably never say that to her, vis a vi. They have been feuding over who has leading authority over the Nationalist Front. Jean Marie has also expressed approval of Donald Trump, the American.

Le Pen opposes European socialism which makes her an extremist in France.

She is proudly French, articulate, and unafraid.

If she wins the Presidency, France will leave the EU.

Whatever “far right” means, it needs to be stronger.
