Less than three months before the first round of the presidential election in France, the tone is set. Violence during Éric Zemmour’s first meeting, little controversial phrases, the most striking recently that of President Emmanuel Macron who claimed to have “very much wanted to annoy” those who had not been vaccinated against Covid-19. Why such a climate? How to explain the success of the right and the extreme right in the polls? What parallels with other European countries?
