“There were a lot of us who saw her direct the young activists towards us”testifies Thursday May 2 on France Bleu Saint-Étienne Loire the boss of the PS in the Loire, Johann Cesa, who accuses the deputy of La France insoumise (LFI) Andrée Taurinya of being behind the ouster of the head of the PS list- Public square at the Europeans, Raphaël Glucksmann, from the May 1 demonstration in Saint-Étienne (Loire).
Attacked on Wednesday by a few dozen demonstrators, the social democratic candidate was exfiltrated from the Saint-Etienne procession and immediately pointed the finger at LFI. For the socialist regional councilor, the elected LFI Andrée Taurinya must “take responsibility for your actions rather than trying to evade”. “There is, in addition, one of its members who was a candidate in the legislative elections who took responsibility publicly on television,” he recalls, referring to the testimony on LCI of a local rebel who claimed, LFI flag in hand“to have been part of those who expelled” the essayist of the procession.
“Many messages” from “communist comrades”
However, Johann Cesa still believes in a local union of the left “so that we can reach the next communes in the Loire”. If the Young Communists of the Loire admitted having “contributed to this action, like other organizations”the boss of the local PS wants to retain “the many messages” that he received “communist comrades”. “That around fifty young fanatics prevent us from demonstrating is one thing, but what I remember is rather these communist activists who spend their time, their lives working for their ideal. We will keep that in mind. head for them, for years to come”he added.
