The intervention of Adrien Quatennens in the Hemicycle aroused the boos of certain elected officials, in particular from the Renaissance.


Anything but discreet.

Already back for several weeks, Adrien Quatennens spoke for the first time in the Hemicycle on Tuesday evening February 7, to defend an amendment concerning pension reform.

His first words led to a frown from the Renaissance deputies, the exit of some elected officials - including Sandrine Rousseau -, and the applause of a handful of rebels.

The day after this particularly virulent scene, the deputy LFI François Ruffin maintains, at the microphone of France Info: “

This is not the right time.

»

Still subject to temporary exclusion from his group, Adrien Quatennens sits for the moment among the non-registered.

This status did not, however, prevent him from expressing himself, and even being surrounded by a few elected LFI.

For François Ruffin, it is however regrettable to have made the choice of a return "

In the midst of a debate on pension reform, he would "

clearly prefer to be questioned about the criteria of arduousness

".

He also understands that this return leads to a "

point of tension

", "

of a nature to divide

", and this "

at a time when we all need to be united (...) to support a movement against pensions which is very deeply rooted in the country

”.

,” he said.

And to return the elected representative of Yvelines to the presence of Damien Abad, implicated at the beginning of the summer for accusations of rape, in his ranks.
