He was not welcome. Like the first time he landed in the Phocaean City, at the very beginning of his campaign, and even gave a middle finger to a Marseillaise who asked him to “clear out”, Éric Zemmour does not only have sympathizers in Marseille. It must be said that the city “protected” by the “Good Mother” has always made racism a scourge to be fought. And the ideas of the candidate Reconquest! can unfortunately, and very often, lead one to think that these tend indeed towards racism when he evokes, in particular, immigration.
As a result, Éric Zemmour does not have a lot of hooks with the Marseillais. The latter, already very upset against the candidate and Stéphane Ravier, who allowed himself to steal the very famous “Aux Armes” from the supporters of Olympique de Marseille, to chant it during the meeting of his candidate at the Trocadéro, in Paris, Sunday last. A “theft” misunderstood by the majority of Marseille and its supporters who did not hesitate to tackle Stéphane Ravier and recall that the club did not wish to be attached to a party with far-right ideas.
Marseille does not want to welcome him
If Éric Zemmour and his clan had not yet understood it, they probably perceived it a little better this Saturday April 2 when they went to Z5, the famous sports complex of the Zidane brothers located between Marseille and Aix-en -Provence. The candidate Reconquest! invited himself with several members of his political team to play a match, before being removed from the premises. Nourredine Zidane, himself, was responsible for evacuating the far-right candidate, obviously unaware of his arrival.
“É.Zemmour on a football field in the Futsal club of Zinédine Zidane. But the candidate’s team did not warn of the presence of cameras, explain the officials. É.Zemmour is thrown out by Nourredine Zidane, brother of the player. The sequence is cancelled”wrote Léopold Audebert, journalist of BFM, before specifying: “According to a member of the candidate’s team, the reservation was not made in the name of É.Zemmour. But that of an activist who used to come and play on site. ‘had done, you can imagine that we would have been told no’ confides another”. A newcomer not far from Marseille, which ends in failure for the presidential candidate.
