Biography
Weber was born in Metz in 1973.[1] He worked as a nurse for the ArcelorMittal steel company in Florange. During this time, Weber became a member and activist for the French Democratic Confederation of Labour before joining the Workers' Force which was classified as more to the left.[2][3] He was involved in campaigns against the closure of blast furnaces in Hayange and Florange.[4]
In 2023, Weber announced that while he agreed with La France insoumise (LFI) on certain positions, he had chosen to join the National Rally (RN), saying he was sceptical about the fact that NUPES would not vote on motions of censure tabled during 2023 French pension reform strikes.[5]
Weber stood as a candidate for the National Rally during the 2024 European Parliament election but was not elected. For the 2024 legislative elections, he stood as the RN candidate for Meurthe-et-Moselle's 3rd constituency and defeated outgoing deputy Martine Étienne of the LFI.[6]
