Following the use of Article 49.3 of the Constitution by Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne and following the rejection of the motion of censure, the pension reform bill was adopted on March 20, 2023 by the National Assembly. and should enter into force by the end of the year. This passage “by force” of this reform generated a series of overflows namely fire, breakage and fight against the forces, caused by angry French citizens and eager to be heard.
Mobilized for weeks, there were still many of them demonstrating and doing this Thursday, March 23, 2023, all over France. If a collective of 300 celebrities has just expressed its dissatisfaction by sending an open letter to the President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron, other personalities have decided to mingle with the crowd.
Lucie Lucas strongly criticized for a slogan used during a demonstration
This is particularly the case of Lucie Lucas who participated in a demonstration organized in Dinan, a city located in the department of Côtes-d’Armor (Brittany). On Instagram, the “Clem” actress shared some photos taken earlier in the day, the opportunity to see her proudly displaying a sign on which was written: “Consent is important, I don’t want your 49 fingers”. What insinuate that the use of Article 49.3 of the Constitution by the government was literally experienced as rape because there is no consent of the people.
If the 36-year-old actress decided to hit hard with this slogan, some of her subscribers did not like the comparison with sexual assault. “Moved this post, I really appreciate you as an actress but you mustn’t mix up all the subjects, too bad…”, “Has the child in the photo given his consent to appear on the networks but also to participate in a demonstration?”, “Completely out of place! Too bad…”, “Stupid slogan and making a frankly awkward amalgam at best, at worst to vomit. Like people who use the word dictatorship anyhow and put Macron and Hitler in the same sentence. I thought you were more clairvoyant” can we read for example. Fortunately, Lucie Lucas was able to count on the support of dozens of other internet users who hailed her courage.
