Lebreton first entered politics in France by joining the Rally for France in 2000.
He campaigned for Jean-Pierre Chevènement in the 2002 French presidential election. Lebreton said that he was "disappointed by Chevènement during the 2002 campaign,who abandoned his Gaullist positioning and leftist rhetoric. His right-wing electorate abandoned him. He didn't succeed in creating a left-wing sovereigntism movement,which needed to break with the federalist PS,and he didn't cross the Rubicon." [3]
He was Le Pen's higher education adviser from October 2011 to January 2015. He was a member of the political group since it started in 2012. Lebreton chose to leave the group in 2014. Lebreton had served as the group's vice president from April 2013 until his departure in November 2014. Gilles Lebreton then became a member of the political bureau of the National Front on 1 December 2014. Just one month later,he was one of the territorial delegates for the party at the 13 departments of the Western constituency (West France (European Parliament constituency) (for Bretagne,Pays de la Loire,Poitou-Charentes).
Under the flag of the Rassemblement bleu Marine (RBM),which joins the National Front and the SIEL,Lebreton was a candidate in the 2012 legislative elections and then was elected as a municipal councilor of Montivilliers in March 2014. [4] Two months later he was elected as a member of the European Parliament. After the May 2014 elections,he became a member of the Committee on Legal Affairs and an alternate member of the Committee on Civil Liberties,Justice and Home Affairs.
Lebreton was a member of Marine Le Pen's strategic council for the 2017 French presidential campaign. Then,in autumn 2017,he coordinated small committee that drafted a "simplified treaty" with the aim of building an "alternative to the European Union",evoking a "median path" "between the choice of an unchanged EU and isolated inward-looking nations”. [5] In January 2019,L'Opinion indicated that he "contributed to the new European orientations of the party since the summer of 2017" . [6]
In February 2018,he succeeded Édouard Ferrand as the head of the FN delegation to the European Parliament .

[8]
In Public Liberties and Human Rights (2008 edition),Gilles Lebreton says he regrets that some leaders of the National Front quote Carl Schmitt,denouncing the "danger to public freedoms" that the author's thought constitutes and that he calls it a “philosophy of exclusion”. In a 2014 interview,however,he mentions that believes that the National Front "has evolved considerably in recent years" and that it had abandoned the referencing of Schmitt. [9]
In March 2020,as relating to the COVID-19 pandemic,he is the only French signatory of a letter signed by 37 MEPs and addressed to the presidents of the three European institutions,which calls for "postponing new legislation within the framework of initiatives such as the European " Green Deal ".

Jean-Claude Michéa, born in 1950, is a retired philosophy professor and French philosopher, author of several essays devoted in particular to the thought and work of George Orwell. Libertarian socialist, he is known for his committed positions against the dominant currents of the left which, according to him, has lost all spirits of anti-capitalist struggle to make way for the “religion of progress”. Advocating several moral values near the socialism of George Orwell, Jean-Claude Michéa excoriates the leftist intelligentsia that has, in his view, gotten away from the proletarian and popular world. He champions collective moral values at odds with an increasingly individualistic and liberal world, which uses only the law and the economy to justify itself. He “considers that the liberal bourgeois models have prevailed upon socialism, in swallowing it up” and “regrets that socialism has accepted the political liberalism’s theories”
