Sébastien Chenu is a French politician representing the National Front. He was elected to the French National Assembly on 18 June 2017, representing the department of Nord.[1]

Openly gay, Chenu founded GayLib, then the LGBT wing of the Union for a Popular Movement (UMP), today part of the Union of Democrats and Independents.[2] He joined the FN after the UMP attempted to kill Law 2013-404, which legalized same-sex marriage, claiming that the UMP had become "the French Tea Party".[3]
