The candidate of rebellious France then attacked Valérie Pécresse. “It has quadrupled, in the Île-de-France region, subsidies for private education, and halved the credits for social housing. Its program is a reactionary festival. Eliminate 50,000 civil servants, bring retirement to 65 years.” The rebels also claimed the arrival in their ranks of the former spokesperson for Sandrine Rousseau, Thomas Portes. Jean-Luc Mélenchon does not want to leave the field to the right and the extreme right.
