French far-right politician Jean-Marie Le Pen dies
Founder of the French far-right National Front party has died aged 96.
Jean-Marie Le Pen, a Holocaust denier and an unrepentant extremist on race, gender and immigration who founded the French far-right National Front party in 1972, has died aged 96.
