While she is following him in the voting intentions, Marine Le Pen is at the center of criticism of Emmanuel Macron a week before the first round of the presidential election. “We have to say things: we are talking about a lady who is the heiress of a clan, who has been in the presidential elections since the 1960s”attacks the candidate in an interview given to the regional dailies of the Ebra group, Monday, April 4.
Jean-Marie Le Pen, the father of the National Rally candidate, was a presidential candidate for the first time in 1974 after having been a deputy in the 1950s. “It’s not a Gathering, it’s a clan”still hammers the outgoing president.
“This clan dares to speak of ‘Africanization’ of France, and that doesn’t shock anyone? We are in a world where we can say the worst atrocities without contradicting, without anyone to say that it is false”still deplores the contender for his re-election.
The outgoing Head of State, who affirms “not liking political correctness” and advocate “the confrontation of ideas, with respect”claims not to have “never moralized the National Front voters”the former name of the National Rally, which he says he uses “purposely”not being “not fooled by the ripolinage”.
“I fight the leaders, but I want to continue to speak to our compatriots attracted by this vote. Firstly because I am the president of all French people and because I want to tell them that I have answers to their fears, (…) on safety (…) and on purchasing power”he further argues.
Invited to France Inter on Monday morning, Emmanuel Macron admitted that he had no “succeeded in stemming” the rise of the extreme right in France over the past five years.
