## Key points

- National Rally proposes listing Antifa as a terrorist group.
- Bardella also wants watch-listed people barred from protests.
- Turnout estimates ranged from 600,000 to 1.6 million.

## Summary

Marine Le Pen’s National Rally says it would seek to have Antifa and other far-left organisations added to terrorist lists if it wins France’s 2027 election. Jordan Bardella, Le Pen’s chosen candidate for prime minister, argues that such groups fuel disorder and should be treated as an armed wing of the far left.

Bardella also wants people on security watch lists barred from demonstrations, comparing the proposed restriction to measures against football hooligans. Protests that began in September over school staffing later widened to include demands for education funding, higher wages and opposition to cuts; the Interior Ministry reported more than 600,000 participants in recent demonstrations and at least 448 arrests. The CGT union estimated turnout at nearly 1.6 million, while the government said 70,000 police officers were deployed.
