PARIS (Reuters) - Top officials from France's far-right National Front gather on Friday to find a way back from successive election failures, and senior members said everything from the party's name to its vow to restore the franc currency were up for review.

Leader Marine le Pen vowed to "deeply renew" the party after she lost the presidential election to centrist Emmanuel Macron in May.
