Presentation of MNR

MNR, led by Bruno Mégret, is an extreme-right party whose origin was a split of Jean Marie Le Pen's Front National. The split caused a legal case because both leaders claimed the copyright on the name Front National, the symbol of the party, the members' list, the buildings and the funds. Le Pen won the case and Mégret was forced to find another name and symbol for his party.
