The boss of rebellious France wants to return the blows received by the presidential coalition since the very good score of Nupes last Sunday (25.59%). Jean-Luc Mélenchon sees in these attacks “the distress signal” of his opponents.

Counterattack. Jean-Luc Mélenchon continues to occupy the field between the two legislative rounds and directly targets the president, very remote in the countrysideto the great displeasure of its majority, which is worried about not obtaining absolute majority next Sunday evening.

“I see that for three days, Emmanuel Macron has planned a trip outside France (the Head of State is currently in Romania before going to Moldova and possibly kyiv, editor’s note). For three days, there is therefore no longer a pilot in the Macronist political plane. So, after having anesthetized the campaign by refusing any debate, he saw the second round as an administrative formality… What contempt!”, advances the boss of rebellious France in the columns of the Parisian this Tuesday noon.

“The violence of the words is a signal of distress”

After one lackluster campaignthe macronie had the unpleasant surprise of being followed in the first round by the Nupes (New Popular Ecologist and Social Union) with only 21,359 votes difference. If Emmanuel Macron could not upset his agenda to sound the tocsin of mobilization, the tenors of the majority are trying to take care of it by multiplying the charges against Jean-Luc Mélenchon.

Édouard Philippe thus imagines “an ungovernable France” in case of victory of the union of the left while Amélie de Montchalin denounces “a project of submission, retreat and lies“. Élisabeth Borne also slipped during a videoconference in front of the candidates of the presidential majority that “when Mélenchon claims to want to be Prime Minister, he is above all the first liar”.

“The violence of the words is a signal of distress from our adversaries. (…). Chaos, it’s him. He no longer knows what to do in the face of the global crisis that is advancing. (…) Today “Today, Emmanuel Macron is flabbergasted by the dynamics of the left. Why? Because he is above ground. He does not understand French society. He does not realize how people are taken by the throat by the prices. It is unlivable. The great poverty is spreading”, defends the former candidate in the daily.

“I do not plan” not to be Prime Minister

Finally, Jean-Luc Mélenchon who called the French “to elect him Prime Minister”, ensures to still believe it. The screenings of Elabe for BFMTV, The Express and SFRwhich must be taken with precautionestimate the number of future Nupe deputies between 160 and 210, far from 289 seats needed to obtain an absolute majority and a leftist prime minister at Matignon.

“I do not envisage any other case. You have to be 100% in what you do. I don’t appreciate people who spare themselves exit doors. But for the politician that I am, who has made a political choice in 2005 by opposing the referendum on Europe, then in 2008 by leaving the PS, what is happening today is the accomplishment of a political orientation, a choice, a reasoning which turned out to be right”, still judges the deputy of Bouches-du-Rhône with our colleagues.

“Matignon is not moving away, Matignon is getting closer,” Jean-Luc Mélenchon had already assured Monday in front of his party’s headquarters in Paris.
