The elected LREM challenged his colleagues during the examination of the text introducing the vaccine pass, Monday evening, in the Hemicycle.
“Each of your posturing is an insult to the people who have died.” The majority deputy, Raphaël Gérard, was almost carried away by the Covid-19. Affected during the first wave, in March 2020, he was hospitalized for long days with a period of coma and still suffers from sequelae today. The elected LREM thus challenged opponents of the bill transforming the health pass into a vaccination pass, examined Monday, January 3 in the National Assembly.
“My freedom today, they are there: it’s 30 cm of cables and 3 kilos of material that I carry 24 hours a day until the end of my days. This is the reality, it is mine and it is that of tens of thousands of people in this country whose lives have been turned upside down “, he was indignant, to the applause of his colleagues.
“Today, we are talking about how to do everything possible to prevent this from happening. So we can talk about freedom, we can brandish freedom in all directions but freedom is not a whole of rights, it is a set of duties and rights “, he continued.
Among the detractors of the text, figure Jean-Luc Mélenchon. Author of a motion to reject the text, the leader of rebellious France calls for a “global plan”, and joked about “measures on those who have the right to eat popcorn or drink their coffee standing or seated”. Senators will consider the bill starting Wednesday. The vaccination pass must come into force on January 15.
