2021-06-04T17:57:19.747Z


Opponents of Marine Le Pen's party unearth many old messages from RN candidates to undermine the movement's “demonization” strategy on the eve of regional elections.



Promising polls, a certain momentum and promising news.

Less than a month before the regional elections, the National Rally would not be missing much to say that it is satisfied.

At least, if a certain number of its candidates and its executives did not see themselves overtaken by incredible exits and slippages.

Coming to undermine its strategy of

"demonization"

on the eve of the elections.

This Friday, Liberation thus reports a two-year-old buffoonery of the current head of the movement's list in the Burgundy-Franche-Comté region, Julien Odoul.

"Is the rope French?" ",

Would have dropped, according to a recording consulted by the daily newspaper, the one who was then president of the group RN to the regional council during discussion, in small committee on the peasant malaise and the cases of suicide of farmers. A escapade on which the opponents of the party were quick to react to the flame, starting within the party The Republicans.

“What indignity.

How can a politician fall into such baseness and make such abject remarks?

Your cynicism is vile.

Each farmer's suicide is a personal tragedy, family and revealing of great distress, "

tweeted the president of the right-wing party, Christian Jacob, taking advantage of the controversy to better distinguish himself from the National Rally, given largely to the head of the first round in Bourgogne-Franche-Comté.

That same Friday, the National Gathering of Gironde assured in a statement that it had suspended one of its candidates for the departmental and regional elections in New Aquitaine, Marta Le Nair, after she

made anti-Semitic comments

on the social network

Facebook

in 2015 and 2020 Messages, recently exhumed by the campaign director of the PS president of the Gironde department, Matthieu Rouveyre.

Earlier in the morning, it was the team of the ex-LR president of Île-de-France, Valérie Pécresse, who herself took charge, during a video press conference, of exhume the comments made on the social networks of running mates of Jordan Bardella, head of the RN list in the Ile-de-France region. Particularly highlighted by the elected representatives of the regional majority Geoffroy Didier, Florence Portelli and Vincent Jeanbrun, an unverified twitter account in the name of Gilles Naudet, which also happens to be the name of the RN candidate in 5th position on the Parisian list:

" The author of the Twitter account ensures in various messages that he lives in Paris, in the 7th arrondissement, but there is only one Gilles Naudet registered on the electoral lists in Paris in the 7th ”

, assures Pierre Liscia, spokesperson for the movement of Valérie Pécresse Libres, to demonstrate that the candidate is indeed the author of the Twitter account.

Several messages of a racist nature, which could be likened to calls to hatred, posted four to five years ago were thus presented by the Pécresse team as exits of the RN candidate.

The account notably signed two days after the attacks of Bataclan, in 2015,

“With these people, the speech is exhausted.

To oppose Erasmus to the Koran, our values ​​to theirs, is to piss into a violin.

Let’s kill them in silence. ”

Or to call to keep

"our tears and our indignation for the French victims of the replacement",

in reaction to the aggression of a Jewish family in Seine-Saint-Denis.

"Gilles Naudet is a lawyer, he confirms to me that he has never had a Twitter account, that he is obviously not the author of the incriminated remarks and that he will take legal action if these accusations were made public

, ensures the

Figaro

the head of the RN list in Île-de-France, Jordan Bardella.

For my part, I consider Ms. Pécresse's accusations to be false and scandalous. I reject them and if she makes them public I will also file a complaint against her for the dissemination of false news aimed at altering the sincerity of the ballot. I will also file a complaint against all those who spread these false accusations against us. Valérie Pécresse certainly fears the National Rally in this election but the electoral campaign does not allow everything and no one will be fooled by these stink balls swinging against our movement a few days before the elections. "

And there are still three weeks of campaign ...
