“The conditions for the rally” of the left are “not met”, according to him. So Bertrand Kern, socialist mayor of Pantin and head of the Seine-Saint-Denis list for regional regions in Ile-de-France, announced on Wednesday that he was withdrawing from Audrey Pulvar’s campaign, confirming information from the Figaro. Adding that “the confidence (was) broken with Mrs. Pulvar”, which did not know, according to him, to create these conditions.
There are currently three left-wing lists in Ile-de-France for the next June poll, the Ecologists around Julien Bayou, the Insoumis around Clémentine Autain, and Ile-de-France in common, the list supported by the PS around Audrey Pulvar. According to polls, each is credited with “10% to 12%”, recalls Bertrand Kern.
“Under these conditions, if we each stay in our own lane, we are headed for disaster. The risk is immense while in the presidential election, the second round could be played between Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen, says the mayor of Pantin. I do not want to participate in this disaster. “
