“Don’t yell at me”: Léa Salamé tries to calm an edgy Jean-Luc Mélenchon

Accustomed to receiving Jean-Luc Mélenchon – on the tv set ofWe are live orElysee 2022 on France 2 or on the radio -, Léa Salamé knows that she will not be spared by the politician and former presidential candidate. This June 7, 2022 during the morning of France Inter which she co-hosts with Nicolas Demorand, the journalist had a lot to do with her guest Insoumis.

There were many subjects for Jean-Luc Mélenchon during his radio interview on France Inter. First of all, his reaction to the tragedy that occurred on Saturday June 4: the check during which a driver was seriously injured and a passenger killed by police fire. On Twitter, the leader of the Insoumis had denounced “a font (who) youe”, guilty of applying “the death penalty for refusing to comply“and exercising”an unacceptable abuse of power“. On the airwaves of France Inter, he assumed his polemical remarks which will earn him a complaint from the Alliance police union.

However, it is not this question that will knock out the deputy of Bouches-du-Rhône who is not a candidate for his succession (it will be Manuel Bompard) but is aiming for the post of Prime Minister. Indeed, when he is asked about the lack of interest of the French population for the legislative elections which will be held on June 12 and 19, he describes the government’s strategy of “General anaesthesia” : “IThe government does not intervene in anything, so no controversy, it bothers everyone“. When the host specifies that “unemployment has never been so low for fifteen years“, Jean-Luc Mélenchon is very annoyed.
