The PS mayor of Le Mans Stéphane Le Foll mocked the “micmac” between Christiane Taubira and Yannick Jadot on Wednesday and considered that the survival of the PS was “already largely under way” with Anne Hidalgo’s campaign not taking off, reports AFP .
“What a mishmash and above all what immaturity on the part of all those who participate”, lamented on France 2 the former Minister of Socialist Agriculture after the confirmation of discussions between the teams of the two candidates.
“I think of all those who voted at this popular Primary (…); a secret meeting to question what had been decided 15 days ago: micmac!”, He repeated, in saying he was “desperate” by it all.
According to him, on the left, “the error that has weighed since the start is to suggest that in politics, it is enough to add up all the votes to create a collective dynamic: no!”.
Discussions between the Jadot and Taubira teams: “There will be an environmental candidacy, it will be mine”, launches Jadot
Asked this Wednesday about the meeting Sunday evening between members of his team and that of Christiane Taubira, the environmental candidate argued “courtesy”.
“The managers of Christiane Taubira’s campaign invited my team to a discussion, they absolutely wanted to discuss with us, on the political situation. We are courteous, we are invited to a meeting, we are going there”, justified Yannick Jadot on LCI.
“My team and my representatives recalled that in 2022, with regard to the climate issue, with regard to injustices, with regard to the need to regain enthusiasm in our country, there will be an environmental candidacy, it will be mine because it is essential,” he continued.
“Freedom convoy”: “of course I understand it” says Marine Le Pen
“The freedom convoy”, which plans to block access to Paris this weekend to protest against the vaccination pass in particular, is the result of “wild globalization, without regulation”, indicated on Europe 1 Marine Le Pen .
The candidate for the presidential election estimated that “we have made our societies into pressure cookers”, indicating concerning this movement: “obviously that I understand it”.
Presidential: “I am prepared, I am ready”, says Yannick Jadot
“I’m prepared, I’m ready,” said Yannick Jadot on Wednesday vis-à-vis the presidential election, interviewed on LCI.
“It’s a collective adventure, the idea that we can govern France alone, the idea that we build an electoral campaign alone, that we win alone to govern alone, it’s an aberration, it is a lie. It’s teamwork and fortunately, “continued the environmental candidate in a tackle to Emmanuel Macron.
If elected, Marine Le Pen promises “there will not be a single pension for less than 1000 euros”
The candidate of the National Rally, who will present her pension reform plan on February 17, mentioned this Wednesday on Europe 1 some elements of her program.
“I will put in place the fact that there will not be a single pension for less than 1000 euros,” she said.
Tense exchange between Gérald Darmanin and Apolline de Malherbe: for Yannick Jadot, “it says a lot about Darmanin’s relationship with women”
“It’s outrageous what he did yesterday”, reacted this Wednesday Yannick Jadot compared to the extremely tense exchange between Gérald Darmanin and journalist Apolline de Malherbe, Tuesday on BFMTV. The Minister of the Interior, questioned about the rising figures of attacks on people, had notably launched “calm down, it will be fine” to the journalist.
“It says a lot about Darmanin’s relationship with women, we know he has a problem with that, but I find that a minister who represents the state, who does not accept criticism or a question from a journalist woman, I find it scandalous”, denounced the presidential candidate, interviewed by LCI from his campaign headquarters. “Basically, he would never have dared to do that with a man,” said the environmentalist, castigating “arrogant and cynical sexism”.
“It once again says the problem he can have with women,” he insisted. “Of course he has to apologize,” he added.
Marine Le Pen says she is missing 100 sponsorships
The candidate of the National Rally declared this Wednesday on Europe 1 that she lacked 100 sponsorships of elected officials, out of the 500 which are necessary to stand for the presidential election.
“We have 400 and some sponsorships. We are missing 100,” said Marine Le Pen.
As for the prospect of elected National Rally not bringing him their sponsorship, Marine Le Pen described such a hypothesis as “ultimate betrayal”.
For Marine Le Pen, France’s membership in NATO is a “strategic submission”
On Europe 1, the candidate of the National Rally in the presidential election reiterated her desire to get France out of NATO’s integrated command if she were to be elected.
For Marine Le Pen, this membership is akin to “a strategic, military submission. France must be a power of balance, so that its voice carries”.
She also castigated Emmanuel Macron’s diplomatic record, saying that his international record “is catastrophic”.
For Abad, the French will “discover” Pécresse on Sunday in a meeting at the Zenith in Paris
“Politics is not peopolization, it is carrying projects, carrying ideas”, estimated this Wednesday Damien Abad on franceinfo, questioned on the meeting of the candidate LR Valérie Pécresse, Sunday at the Zenith of Paris.
“Sunday, I give an appointment to all those and all those who want to discover Valérie Pécresse”, however added the leader of the deputies Les Républicains. “There is of course an expectation from the French”, estimates the elected representative of Ain.
Asked about the fact that Nicolas Sarkozy would not be present and had not supported Valérie Pécresse at this stage, Damien Abad felt that this was justified by the fact that he was a former President of the Republic.
“He has a special status. We cannot ask a former President of the Republic to come to a political meeting when the current President of the Republic has not declared himself a candidate”, judged Damien Abad. “Nicolas Sarkozy cannot be in the meanders of political politics morning, noon and evening,” he continued.
“We’ll have to think about it at some point”: Macron is ironic about his presidential candidacy
Traveling to Ukraine on Tuesday, after going to Moscow on Monday, Emmanuel Macron was ironic about his presidential candidacy.
“We’ll have to think about it at some point,” he said with a smile, when asked about this point at a press conference.
At this stage, Emmanuel Macron is not yet a candidate for re-election. He had, however, confessed to having “desire” in early January.
