    • 2015 December 13, Jorge Almeida Fernandes, “Estratégia de Marine Le Pen: devorar a direita tradicional”, in Público:
      A FN está limitada por um "cordão sanitário" que a impede de fazer os indispensáveis acordos para as eleições legislativas e presidenciais. Com um vasto eleitorado, tem dois deputados. Fazer saltar o "tabu das alianças", forçando a direita a aceitar governar com a FN é o primeiro passo para sair do isolamento e dilacerar os Republicanos (LR, Les Républicains, antiga UMP, de Nicolas Sarkozy).
