It’s a final day of campaigning, Friday, April 22. The candidates for the second round of the presidential election and their activists are throwing their last forces into battle. Marine Le Pen is in Étaples (Pas-de-Calais), in conquered territory since she arrived there in the lead in the first round. Between two smiles at voters, the National Rally candidate also attacked her opponent on pensions. “He confirmed that retirement at 65 would force a 20-year-old to work for 45 years to be able to get a full pension.“, she criticized from a town located close to Le Touquet, where the Macron couple has a house.
As for Emmanuel Macron, he is expected in Figeac (Lot), a medieval city where he is to hold a meeting on Friday afternoon. On D-2 of the second round, the outgoing president also condemns his rival’s project. “The debate has clearly made it possible to highlight that it is called the French far right“, said the candidate of La République en Marche on France Inter, Friday morning.
