LFI refuses to vote « a comfort law » – release

Jean-Luc Mélenchon and his allies clarify their position a little more vis-à-vis the recent condemnation of ineligibility of Marine Le Pen. Insoumise France has decided not to vote a bill to remove the provisional execution of this type of judgment. The party coordinator, Manuel Bompard, said that Marine Le Pen has no reason « To complain » After obtaining a call quickly.

“It is a comfort law. I certainly do not intend to vote for a Marine Le Pen law ”, He said on France Info allusion to the bill that Eric Ciotti intends to file to remove the sentences of immediate ineligibility, such as that imposed on Marine Le Pen.

This declaration lifts the veil of opacity which hovered as for the LFI position in this case. At the announcement of the conviction, the rebellious had soberly taken « act » of the decision, saying that they would beat the RN « Tomorrow in the polls, whatever her candidate ». But it was Jean-Luc Mélenchon who especially sowed doubts about the intentions of his party by criticizing the principle of ineligibility with provisional execution: « We refuse in principle that the recourse is impossible for a defendant whatever it is ». The leader of rebellious France had broken the nail, believing that « The decision to remove an elected official should return to the people ». What attract the wrath of the rest of the left.

This ambiguous posture can be explained by the threat which hovers on Jean-Luc Mélenchon, also targeted by a judicial information on suspicions of embezzlement of public funds in the European Parliament. In this context, two former parliamentary assistants of the rebellious leader in Brussels were placed under the intermediate status of assisted witness at the end of 2022.

This clarification comes in the aftermath of a Mobilization of activists in support of Marine Le Pen, Place Vauban in Paristo protest against the immediate application of a sentence of five years of ineligibility for embezzlement of public funds pronounced against him on Monday March 31 in theEuropean parliamentary assistant business. The deputy for Pas-de-Calais also receives a four-year prison sentence, including two electronic bracelets and a fine of 100,000 euros.

According to Manuel Bompard, the RN is « Quite isolated » On the subject: « The proof is that yesterday’s rally which was to be a procedural element to show that Madame Le Pen has popular support was a big flop ». According to the RN, some 10,000 sympathizers were present in front of the invalids against less than 7,000, according to a police source, in a place far from being filled.

Opposite, the counterattack called by LFI, Ecologists and Generation Place de la République did not attract crowds either. « It is not entirely the same for a demonstration called for a week with the RN buses to try to make a great show of strength and for an answer which was called in a few days »retorted Manuel Bompard. Prefers to give him an appointment on May 1 to « A powerful answer with hundreds of thousands of people on the street ».
