Noémie Halioua: "Louis Boyard or the politics of excessive buzz"

2023-02-14T10:35:41.003Z


FIGAROVOX/TRIBUNE - Journalist Noémie Halioua paints a portrait of the youngest deputy of the Fifth Republic, Louis Boyard. The rebellious elected official, by his excesses and his provocations, copiously feeds a “buzz machine” which discredits the national representation, she affirms.


Noémie Halioua is editor-in-chief and correspondent in Paris for the I24 News channel.

She co-wrote

Le Nouvel Antisémitisme en France

(ed. Albin Michel, 2018), wrote

The Sarah Halimi Affair

(ed. du Cerf, 2018) and has just published

r Les uns contre les autres - Sarcelles, du vivre-ensemble au vivre -separated

(ed. of the Deer).

In the family of the radical left there is the patriarch, the great Manitou, the sheet metal worker named Jean-Luc Mélenchon, unhappy as a stone to see his spiritual son die politically for a dark story of cuffing his wife.

Under his authority, a gallery of characters that even the most fertile imagination could not have invented.

The hilarious Sandrine Rousseau, who praises the right to laziness and dreams of imposing her fantasy of the deconstructed man, the irascible Aymeric Caron, committed to the defense of mosquitoes and Norway mice, the budding poet Danièle Obono who balks to proclaim "Vive la France" but not to invite his congeners to "eat" their "dead".

Nevertheless, the most tumultuous specimen remains undoubtedly the youngest of the gang: he combines a royal first name with the name of

Louis Boyard, born in Fontenay-le-Comte in Vendée, youngest deputy in the history of the Republic.

Since his election on the threshold of the 16th legislature, he has belched at the microphone of the National Assembly like rapper Eminem in

8 Miles

, minus the talent.

With the vigor of his young age, he cuts his words like knives and attacks anything that could be related to a symbol of authority.

Sometimes he encourages students to

"block all the universities in the country"

, sometimes he denounces

the "imposture"

of the President of the Republic, sometimes he seeks to intimidate opposition parliamentarians by posting them on Twitter and calling his subscribers to

“remember their names”

.

The day when danger awaits him, the young chosen one discreetly calls for help from those he has always denigrated.

By his excesses and his provocations, he generously feeds this buzz machine which discredits the national representation and becomes

"the caricature of the bordélisation"

of the country according to the Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin.

Louis Boyard, a presumptuous child deputy who wants to play tough and distributes insults like others string pearls, waiting to reach his own limits.

No need to be a great cleric to understand that at 22, Boyard entered the hemicycle with the revolt of a "bleeding youth", and that life has not yet had time to appease.

The day when danger awaits him, Louis Boyard discreetly calls for help from those he has always denigrated.

He had so far a favorite target: the police.

Spitting out without originality the speeches of the little scum who elected him, he attacked the police without the slightest restraint, throwing accusations like bullets with his mouth to destroy the reputation of a corporation which is struggling to enforce.

Everyone hates the police, the police kill, we must dissolve the BAC, he took pleasure in vociferating in front of the cameras.

The police, ideal target for a kid who had known neither fear nor insecurity until then, who had only a hazardous representation of it to the point of believing he could eternally do without it.

Yes, but here it is

The day when fear twists his stomach, the rascal turns to the good old forces of order.

The day when danger awaits him, the young chosen one discreetly calls for help from those he has always denigrated.

Thus for several days, BAC 94 agents have been guarding his home at night so that he can sleep soundly, as reported by police officer Linda Kebbab.

It is their presence, at the foot of his building, which allows him to breathe without the fear of being beaten by angry crazies.

Like those children who say they hate their parents, who put them down to others all the time, but who rush to take refuge at home at the slightest disappointment in life.

Some tests put the ideas in order say the elders who are not always wrong.

It would seem that in the face of danger, Boyard understood that the primary function of the police is not to murder innocent people.

Perhaps he will one day understand that if the police are men and they remain fallible, their exercise remains necessary to any democracy worthy of the name.

Louis Boyard fits perfectly into the logic instigated by the President of the Republic, for worse as for better.

Let us nevertheless be optimistic: the unfortunate episode could teach him the sense of proportion, constitute for him a passage towards adulthood.

In the best of all possible worlds, Louis Boyard would thank the French people for paying for his security and the agents for keeping watch outside his home at night.

One could imagine him grown up, calmed down, lavishing the unifying good word on his congeners in construction like him, deciding to wear a jacket in the hemicycle, he could decide to "settle" rather than boast of making wheat by selling drugs.

He could even thank Emmanuel Macron of which he is, in a way, a creature of Frankenstein.

Boyard, Macron's child.

Remember that the Mozart of finance was the first to want to deprofessionalize the profession of politics, to push the career politician out and bring ordinary mortals into the National Assembly.

If François Hollande claimed to be a “normal president”, it is indeed Emmanuel Macron who democratized the end of the profession of politics in the name of the renewal of democracy.

We remember the disillusioned political journalists of no longer knowing anyone at the Assembly bar, after the legislative elections following the first election of Emmanuel Macron.

Louis Boyard fits perfectly into the logic instigated by the President of the Republic, for the worse as for the better.

He could tell him,
