Emmanuel Macron’s remarks on the unvaccinated: the government’s reaction

A few hours after their publication in Le Parisien, the words of Emmanuel Macron still do not pass. Wednesday January 5, the discontented speeches are linked in Parliament. “When we use the terms shit, it is falling into populism“, indignant Paul Molac, the Liberties and Territories deputy of Morbihan.

After the Council of Ministers, the government reacted to the controversy with a speech by Gabriel Attal, who could well continue to ignite the powder. “We’re going to talk to each other frankly, who is screwing whose life today? The words of the President of the Republic seem to me to fall far short of the anger of a very large majority of French people, faced with this choice (…) to oppose the vaccine“, declared the spokesman of the government. In the Senate, Jean Castex also reacted in the defense of Emmanuel Macron, affirming that his remarks are coherent with their actions.
