Thousands of Les Patriotes supporters flooded central Paris on the 20th anniversary of France’s rejection of the EU Constitutional Treaty, chanting “EU must die!” and demanding Frexit. Party leader Florian Philippot tore up the EU flag, accusing French elites of betraying the 2005 vote by later approving the Lisbon Treaty without public consent. Protesters slammed the government for bowing to Brussels and vowed to reignite the resistance against EU control.
