EUObserver, France24 and other news sources reported that former French Prime Minister François Fillon said on the 9 November 2014 that he would sue French daily Le Monde for reporting that he encouraged legal action against his former boss, Nicolas Sarkozy, in a bid to beat him to their party's 2017 presidential nomination. The Local.fr reported that 'Both of France's mainstream political parties have become mired in yet another shady scandal that will once again tarnish the reputation of the country's politicians and almost certainly leave only one winner' - the far-right leader Marine Le Pen. |
