The far-right National Front is at the "gates of power" in France, Prime Minister Manuel Valls said Sunday in a stark assessment of the crisis embroiling the country's center-left government.
Valls's warning follows a week of turmoil for the ruling Socialists which culminated in the publication of an opinion poll showing FN leader Marine Le Pen would beat President Francois Hollande in the event of a run-off between them for the presidency in 2017.
