There’s probably another 5-10 per cent who are second-generation non-French ethnicity. When you factor in that many of those are European (Portugal, Italy, and Spain are all in the top 7 in immigrant source countries), and presumably not in the crosshairs of the far-right, you’re probably looking at well under 15 per cent non-European background.

That’s a handicap to any electoral strategy. But not comparable to a country like Canada or Australia, where a nativist political movement is a non-starter electorally.

Thanks for the Wikpidia review - what would we do with out you?
