Movement for France Political Party

• The Movement for France is a conservative, soft Eurosceptic and a Gaullist French political party, founded on 20 November 1994, with a marked regional stronghold in the Vendée. It is led by Philippe de Villiers, once communications minister under Jacques Chirac. The party is considered Eurosceptic, though not to the extent of seeking withdrawal from the European Union. In this way it contrasts with some other mainstream Eurosceptic parties such as the UK Independence Party. The MPF resists increases in European integration and campaigned successfully for a "no" vote in the French referendum of 2005 on the proposed European Constitution. It is also strongly opposed to the possible accession of Turkey to the European Union and to what it sees as the Islamisation of France. The party was a member of President Nicolas Sarkozy’s presidential majority, which gathers the allies of the ruling party Union for a Popular Movement.
