“It is Valérie Pécresse’s project that is closest to that of François Fillon”, assures Bruno Retailleau

According to Le Parisien, Nicolas Sarkozy will not attend the last meeting of Valérie Pécresse, Porte de Versailles, when he had been invited. “I don’t have that information, it’s possible, but now, it doesn’t matter“, says Bruno Retailleau, president of the group Les Républicains in the Senate, who refuses to speak of a coup de grace. “I think we’re in the countryside now“, he underlines.

Bruno Retailleau admits to regret that the former President of the Republic has still not supported the Republican candidate. “The logic, since he was an eminent member of our political family, President of the Republic, is to support our candidate“, he explains. Moreover, only 40% of François Fillon’s voters will vote for Valérie Pécresse.”It is his project that is closest to that of François Fillon. She wants to restore order in the street, in the accounts (…), and she wants to restore freedom to the French, for school for example“, assures Bruno Retailleau.
