The farmers’ strike and protests continue. For several days now, farmers have been mobilizing against the increase in taxes linked to the exercise of their difficult and poorly paid work. In this context, Karine Le Marchand, presenter of the show Love is in the meadow, wanted to give them support. Live on the radio,The host took the floor to ask French citizens to consume locally to support the agricultural rebellion movement.
“As a consumer, we have a responsibility. I am sure, the French are willing to pay a few cents more if they are sure that it will go into the pocket of a farmer and that it will save his life.” she said this Monday, January 22 live on RTL radio. “If we don’t eat French, tomorrow we will no longer have the choice of eating French. These will be other standards” she added.
Unconvincing remarks which caused him to be tackled by Cyril Hanouna. “Karine Le Marchand, who comes to the RTL microphone, with a floury face and her Gucci boots, and she is going to ask the French to consume French… Consuming French is extremely expensive! So tomorrow morning you’re going to go back to RTL and you’re going to tell them ‘no, I was wrong. I am going to ask the government to ensure that the French can buy French because it is more competitive than what you can find elsewhere. So !”.
