“Sorry for the crowd, I hope it doesn’t disturb the animals too much”;
“Sorry, we’re shaking things up.”
How offbeat, almost insolent, seems this politeness (repeated until the evening) of Gabriel Attal towards the exhibitors and visitors of the Agricultural Show.
The inconvenience caused by the pack that forms in his wake is so little compared to the absolute chaos triggered by Emmanuel Macron's visit on Saturday February 24.
Without common measure.
The contrast is stark.
As soon as he arrives, at milking time, the Prime Minister is questioned by a breeder.
The evils, the recriminations, the demands remain and are reminded of him throughout his journey.
But there is no longer this fury, this extreme tension.
“It’s always important to talk to each other,” judges Attal, equipped with a “lavalier microphone” to avoid the sound booms of the “media circus” that he denounced on Sunday.
