Marine Le Pen accused Emmanuel Macron of being "weak" over Islamist terrorism on Monday as aides slammed him as "arrogant" for holding a glitzy party in a high-end bistro "as if he'd already won", a day after the pair reached the second round runoff on May 7. The blistering attack from the far-Right Front National candidate came hours after she won 21.4 per cent of the national vote, just behind Mr. Macron, an independent centrist, who came top on 23.9 per cent. For the first time in almost 60 years, neither the mainstream Left nor Right managed to reach the final.

While polls suggest Mr. Macron will trounce Ms. Le Pen in the runoff, Sunday's first round vote split France down the middle both politically and geographically; the electoral map shows the centrist came top in the West while the FN leader triumphed in the East. She did well in rural and so-called "peri-urban" areas, while he romped home in towns and cities with more than 15,000 people. On the campaign trail on Monday in Rouvroy, northern France, the anti-EU, anti-immigrant Ms. Le Pen said: "I'm on the ground to meet the French people to draw their attention to important subjects, including Islamist terrorism - an issue where Mr. Macron is a weakling to say the least." "Mr. Macron has no project to protect the French people in the face of Islamist dangers," she said, adding that the run-off with the ex-economy minister was a referendum on "savage globalisation".

Ms. Le Pen's aides said they believed the fight against terror was one of the inexperienced Mr. Macron's weak spots. Security has come to the fore after an Islamist gunman killed a police officer on Paris' Champs Elysées last Thursday. Both candidates will attend a national tribute to the slain officer on Tuesday. Opening up another front, the Le Pen camp also criticized Mr. Macron for inviting supporters, including a string of Parisian celebrities, to a glitzy restaurant after his first round win.

Florian Philippot, 35, Front National deputy leader, said: “Mr Macron went into another Parisian restaurant with his showbiz friends. (It was) sparkle and sequins.“He is a lot too confident and a lot too arrogant, as though the French people in reality don’t count.” The FN was not alone in criticising his perceived triumphalism that even his allies fear could turn off provincial France. Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet, 43, a centre-right politician whose party has thrown its weight behind Mr. Macron for round two, said: “They are looking like it is a foregone conclusion, but it isn’t a foregone conclusion. ”LeParisien newspaper said: “The atmosphere was one of celebration, as though victory was already guaranteed.

Commentators made damaging comparisons with Nicolas Sarkozy, 62, the former centre-right president, whose term of office was undermined by his “bling-bling” image. Mr. Sarkozy's time in office was blighted by his initial decision to stage a party for show business supporters and billionaire friends at Fouquet’s, a restaurant on the Champs-Élysées, on the evening of his election as head of state in 2007. Mr. Philippot said: "I saw Mr. Macron take himself for Mr. Sarkozy on the evening of his win, except that Sarkozy did it on the evening of the second round."
