He served on the Regional Council of Nord-Pas-de-Calais from 2000 to 2012, he is vice-president of high schools from 2004 and learning from 2010, chaired by Daniel Percheron.

Kemel stood for the Socialist Party in the 2012 French legislative election. He was elected MP on 17 June 2012 in Pas-de-Calais's 11th constituency, after a high-profile campaign where he beat Left Front Member of the European Parliament Jean-Luc Mélenchon in the first round and won a very slim victory of 118 votes over Marine Le Pen in the second round.[4]

Kemel stood for re-election at the 2017 French legislative election but was defeated decisively in the first round, winning just 10% of votes. In the second round, his seat was won by Marine Le Pen.[5][6]

Following the election of Jean-Pierre Corbisez in the Senate, he was nominated as a candidate to succeed him at the head of the agglomeration, following an internal vote in the majority group,[7] but was defeated by Christophe Pilch.[8]
