Jean-Luc Mélenchon castigates “the Holland wing of the PS, the Jadot wing of EELV and Fabien Roussel” in a blog note returning on Tuesday to the failure the day before of a motion of censure LFI.
“What an aberration! “, writes, for the deputies of the left who have not voted for censure, the former LFI presidential candidate: “Under the pretext of ” refusing RN votes ”, they end up say, by supporting the Macron government by refusing its fall. »
The Social Security budget was adopted on Tuesday after the rejection of a motion of censure from the National Rally and another from LFI. La France insoumise had this time gone it alone on the left in the filing of its motion, which did not fill up on the left, 22 votes from the allies of the Nupes being lacking, including those of the boss of the PCF Fabien Roussel and the socialist Valerie Rabault.
Roussel and the targeted socialists
However, according to Mélenchon, “the unitary core of Nupes has grown and strengthened. His internal adversaries remain the same: the wing (François) Hollande of the PS, the wing (Yannick) Jadot of EELV and Fabien Roussel. Jean-Luc Mélenchon on Tuesday qualifies the choice of the former communist presidential candidate as “astonishing support (and isolated to the PCF) in favor of Macron’s Social Security budget”.
Aiming further, without naming them, the twelve socialist deputies – out of 31 – who did not vote for the motion, he analyzes their attitude as a “congress posture to harm Olivier Faure and the majority of the PS group which voted for the censorship. »
The PS will meet in congress in January in Marseille. Its first outgoing secretary, Olivier Faure, must defend on this occasion against his detractors his strategy of inclusion in Nupes.
