The majority defend the “frankness” of Emmanuel Macron
The majority to the rescue of Emmanuel Macron. While the opposition has strongly criticized since last night the words of the President of the Republic on the unvaccinated, its supporters prefer to praise the « franchise » of the Head of State. “He speaks frankly, he says things”, explained Tuesday evening the delegate general of The Republic on the march (LRM), Stanislas Guerini.
“It is not a question of ostracizing a part of the French, it is a question of frankly assuming a line and a strategy, which consists in placing the constraints not on the French who make the choice of vaccination but on the French who choose not to be vaccinated, he continued from the National Assembly. We are at a time when there is a need for frankness in political speech and this is the choice made by the President of the Republic. ”
Assuming wanting “Piss off” the unvaccinated, Mr. Macron “Took this formula which belongs to President Georges Pompidou” We must stop pissing off the French “and, from this sentence, he confirmed what our health policy is since we have mastered and we widely distribute the vaccine in our country, explained for his part the leader of LRM deputies, Christophe Castaner. There is no question of allowing a risk to be borne by the 90% of French people who have entered the vaccination process because 10% of people have decided to refuse this collective freedom. “
On the government bench, the Minister of Health, Olivier Véran, tried to explain the presidential word, in a more civilized language: “The evil that is ravaging our country is a vaccination which, although important, remains insufficient”, with « millions » unvaccinated, he explained.
