French National Front party leader Marine Le Pen has said on her Twitter page that she would lodge a lawsuit against what she described as a "banking fatwa."
"We will file a complaint over political discrimination. I appeal to our executives, to my 11 million voters, and more generally to all the French who defend democracy, to tackle all the consequences of this banking fatwa of which we are victims!" she said.
