“The Macronists have chosen their opposition” And “they are trying to play us again [la carte de] ‘It’s me or chaos'”, denounces Thursday May 30 on France Inter Manon Aubry, head of the list of La France insoumise in the European elections. She believes that this strategy “doesn’t work very well given their difficulties in the campaign” electoral. For Manon Aubry, on the contrary this duality is “extremely dangerous” because she “raises the danger of the arrival of the extreme right” in power.

Two weeks before the election, the MEP denounces “these kind of comfort opponents of this little duo between the Macronists and the extreme right”. On Tuesday, Emmanuel Macron called on Europeans to “wake up” in the face of the rise of the far right. Manon Aubry responds Thursday to the comments of the French president who regretted that a “A bad wind is blowing in Europe”. “Who caused this bad wind to blow in Europe? Who was the stepping stone of the extreme right? Who voted for an immigration law in France which takes up the theses of Jean-Marie Le Pen on national preference? It is precisely the macronists”she protests.

The MEP also ensures that the elected representatives of the National Rally “are aligned” with the presidential majority “in social matters”. She accuses them “to vote systematically alongside the Macronists” at a time “in the European Parliament” And “to the National Assembly” French when “It’s about voting against the ISF, against the taxation of super profits, against the increase in the minimum wage, against further redistribution of wealth, against wage gaps within companies.” “They are racist, xenophobic, sexist, they systematically attack women’s rights,” she adds.
