Florence Joubert (born June 30, 1965) is a French politician of the National Rally. She was elected member of the National Assembly for Dordogne's 3rd constituency in 2024.

Career

[edit]

Joubert worked as a school teacher in Paris before moving to the Dordogne in 1995 where she founded a house restoration business.[1] She first joined the National Rally in 2014 and later became a parliamentary assistant to Serge Muller.[2]

For the 2024 French legislative election, she was selected as the RN's candidate for Dordogne's 3rd constituency. At this time, the centre-left newspaper Libération alleged that Joubert had previously made a number of controversial social media posts in 2020 on immigrants and the COVID-19 vaccine.[3] During the election campaign, her opponent Christelle Druillole of the New Popular Front filed a complaint after Joubert produced a leaflet arguing that the left-wing coalition supported "violence, hatred of the police, hatred of Jews." The case was subsequently dropped.[4] Joubert was elected to the constituency on the second round.[5]
