It is has been too busy

"Farage, who has been heavily critical of the Front National as a party, but admires Le Pen personally, said he had not had time to think about whether he would support her campaign for the Elysée. “It is has been too busy,” he said." (The Guardian.)

In English but, The Guardian seems to have written it the French way with "Front" before "National".
