None. She was involved in embezzling about three million euro. As in most countries, stealing large amounts of money is illegal in France, even if you're a very special racist politician. France is perhaps a _little_ unusual in that it regularly criminally punishes criminal politicians (not restricted to the far right; former president Sarkozy spent a few weeks in prison and also got an electronic tag for corruption). Some countries, notably the US, are extremely unwilling to do this (at least at a federal level; the US has occasionally jailed naughty state governors, I think). Up to you whether you consider this a _good_ practice. |
