Céline Imart, a cereal producer from Tarn, will be number two on the LR list in the European elections. The choice of the Republicans comes a few days before the opening of the Agricultural Show.

“I accepted the challenge to change things on a European scale,” Ms. Imart declared to Le Figaro, arguing that she knew “the constraints that the French undergo on a daily basis” “At this stage, the polls don't mean much. What matters is the dynamic. I am convinced that our list will create a surprise," says Éric Ciotti.
