Prepare the right-wing work-study program with “
New energy
” for France. In these terms, David Lisnard unveiled the ambitions of his political party on Wednesday in Paris. The mayor LR of Cannes was delighted to see "the
birth
" of a "
beautiful militant force
" around his project and is counting on the resonance of his proposals in the debate on the right to develop, attract members and raise funds for a structure that existed since the municipal elections of 2014. “
I felt an orphan of political offer, I became a bearer of ideas. It's fascinating and it changes the personal teams so much…
”, he explained.
Without denying his belonging to the Republicans, David Lisnard spoke in the third plural, insisting on his desire not to personalize the process.
If many supporters want his presence in the presidential competition in 2022, Lisnard prefers to focus today on his analysis of the country and on “
pragmatic
”
solutions
that should allow France to break with a spiral of decline.
A spiral that he took care to detail in several areas, from industrial collapse to
social and budgetary
"decay"
through "
sovereign disintegration
" or even "
bureaucratic delirium
".

His observation is overwhelming, but Lisnard nevertheless wants to trace perspectives.
Because, according to him, if France "
is not safe from a collapse
", it is possible to avoid it.
"
There is no fatality, there are only fatalists
", asked the president of "
New energy
".
"Neither soft project, nor soft leader"
While the Republicans' strategic council had just specified its method for bringing out a presidential candidate, Lisnard explained that he would decide in September on his possible participation in the Cevipof investigations, announced on Wednesday by the LR presidency. In the meantime, he intends to focus on the development of a project supporting a political leap and based on field experience. "
We can not have a soft project, nor a soft leader in 2022
", repeated the mayor of Cannes in
Figaro
, Wednesday, after the presentation of his movement in a Parisian hotel in the 16th arrondissement.
By contesting the “
relevance of the policy
” conducted by the executive, Lisnard denounced the “
deadly dialectic
” Macron / Le Pen. "
Faced with the vacuum of the political offer we try to bring a content: values, a leadership, a coherence
", he defended, considering that without "
alternative projects
", a democracy was "
atrophied.
".
Among the Republicans, among the elected officials most attentive to its work, we can quote the deputies Jean-Louis Thiériot and Olivier Marleix, or the European deputy François-Xavier Bellamy and the senator Bruno Retailleau.
But Wednesday, David Lisnard had wanted to surround himself only with a few personalities committed behind him, often from civil society.
Viviane Chaine-Ribeiro, president of the federation of very small businesses, is the vice-president of “
New energy
”.
We also meet Annie Lhéritier, former collaborator of Jacques Chirac, Victor Fouquet, tax specialist, or Caroline Doucerain, mayor of Loges-en-Josas in Yvelines and responsible for the national deployment of the movement.
"Reasonable radicality"
David Lisnard takes a political approach "
in the noble sense of the term
" and wants "to
stimulate an alternative
" by recognizing a failure of the right in the incarnation of such a project. He sees France at a time of "
change
", subject to a conjunction of crises (security, social, identity, educational ...) but he wants to rely on the "
creative energy
" of the country to build an offer. He knows that all the initiatives led on the right will have to be found, but he wants to fix points of convergence around the credo: believe in France. "
Within New Energy we know who we are,
" he insisted, defending the idea of "
reasonable radicalism.
"And a series of central values: freedom, security, state authority, economic prosperity, responsibility, sovereignty, independence, reestablishment of a" great educational power "...
Aware of his recent notoriety which emerged during the health crisis, David Lisnard promised to build his alternative project around three pillars: a prosperous society, a successful state and a united nation.
"
Our project is modern, rooted, turned towards a new hope
" added David Lisnard before finally specifying that his approach had the ambition to meet a majority of "
motivated
"
citizens
