“We have the feeling that any LFI will end up in court”mocks Sébastien Chenu, vice-president of the National Rally, on franceinfo Wednesday April 24, after the police summoned the president of the LFI group to the National Assembly, Mathilde Panot for “apology of terrorism”. “It’s the sprinkler watered”says the deputy from the North, since “It made LFI smile more when it happened to others, to find themselves in court”.

“I fight LFI’s comments, they go beyond the limits and they do it for electoral reasons” affirms Sébastien Chenu, who points out in particular the position of the rebels vis-à-vis Hamas, but “on the background”Sébastien Chenu says to himself “hostile to the judicialization of political life”.

A few days before Mathilde Panot, LFI European candidate Rima Hassan was also summoned by the police, on the same grounds. The Northern MP said he was worried about the problems “substantive and temporality problems” posed by the judicialization of political life. “In an electoral campaign, it’s still complicated to see politicians who are candidates having to go to court.”

“It disrupts the smooth running of the electoral campaign.”

“The idea of ​​judicializing everything is an Anglo-Saxon practice and the macronie is rocked by this philosophy, she is very fond of all that”tackle Sébastien Chenu, “they have a relationship with politics which is very far from our institutional practices”.

He … not “say not” that the executive would manage these summons before the courts, but “I say that they are sensitive to this Anglo-Saxon side in which everything ends in court”. He concludes, scathingly: “Macronia is not only governing against the people, but it is governing without the people and replacing politicians, once by experts, once by judges.”
