I am happy to the spokeswoman for this French youth that tomorrow will be spearhead new hope in the shape of the National Front.

I'm a big action junkie. I grew up on the '80s action movies - the bad ones and the good ones.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.
