quoting snippets of the article:
Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Rally party (RN), which Bardot supported
Le Pen, whom Bardot once described as “the Joan of Arc of the 21st century”
Bardot’s incendiary comments about ethnic minorities, immigration, Islam and homosexuality resulted in a string of convictions for inciting racial hatred. French courts fined her six times between 1997 and 2008 for her comments, particularly those targeting France’s Muslim community. In one case, a Paris court fined her €15,000 (£13,000) for describing Muslims as “this population that is destroying us, destroying our country by imposing its acts”.
In her 2003 book A Cry in the Silence, she espoused rightwing politics and took aim at gay men and lesbians, schoolteachers and the so-called “Islamisation of French society”, resulting in a conviction for inciting racial hatred.
Bardot had a long history of supporting the RN, formerly known as the National Front. She told the Guardian in 1996: “On the terrifying surge of immigration, I share [Jean-Marie Le Pen’s] views completely.”
