Questioned on BFMTV about a hypothetical motion of censure by La France insoumise of the Bayrou government, François Rebsamen attacked… the National Rally. “I respect all political forces, except the RN,” said the Minister of Regional Planning and Decentralization. I do not respect (not all, I know some in my department) those who make speeches of hatred and exclusion of others.”
A position denounced by Jordan Bardella. “François Bayrou should quickly remind his minister that the respect due to the 11 million French voters of the National Rally is one of our main demands,” says the head of the RN. “And insulting them is a red line that it is better not to cross when you are part of a minority government. »
“These moralizers are actually hypocrites”
“These people who give lessons all year round, who are moralizers, in reality are hypocrites,” says Sébastien Chenu, vice-president of the RN, on RFM. The same people who said Je suis Charlie only tolerate the expression when it goes their way. » For the deputy for the nineteenth constituency of the North, François Rebsamen is “the man of betrayals, an old out-of-the-box socialist from the 1980s.”
Faced with the controversy, the president of Dijon Métropole clarified his comments on X. “I respect every French person. On the other hand, I do not respect the ideas of the RN. I fight them,” he says.
