In Fréjus, a commune in the Var which passed under the National Rally flag (RN, ex-National Front) in 2014 with the election to mayor of David Rachline,

Marine Le Pen

launched an appeal on Sunday September 6: “ 

French, wake up!

 "And to help them, the president of the RN drew up, on the occasion of her return, a frightening picture of the security situation in France, denouncing a" 

murderous summer

 "and amalgamating all the violence of recent months.

“ 

It is a real barbarism that sets in.

With barbarism, we do not negotiate.

We fight it.

Faced with crime, we need a state response, a firm, determined, relentless response,

 ”she insisted.

💬 “To clean up the gangrenous neighborhoods, the families of delinquents will be systematically evicted from social housing.

As for the foreign delinquent, he will be systematically expelled!

Ranged weapon pass with Eric Dupont-Moretti

Her target is obviously the one she imagines to find in front of her during the 2022 presidential election,

Emmanuel Macron

.

But it was for her new Minister of Justice,

Eric Dupont-Moretti

, that she reserved the most numerous and scathing attacks.

“ 

It is not for nothing that Mr. Dupont-Moretti can enter Fresnes

[the prison] to

the acclamation, not of the guards but of the criminals.

Dupont-Moretti is

[Christiane]

Taubira worse,

 ”said Marine Le Pen.

Marine Le Pen is his father in worse

 ", retorted the minister on Twitter, for whom the president of the RN " 

lies shamelessly

 ".

Madame Le Pen lies shamelessly and I will prove it to the French.

More and more strong words and more and more populist ideas.

Almost 40 years after its abolition, she talks again about the death penalty.


Marine le Pen is her father at worst.

Nothing new under the Fréjus sun.

Faced with what she calls the “ 

security shipwreck

 ” of the government, Marine Le Pen offers her solutions to fight against delinquency: real life imprisonment, suspension of benefits, expulsions of foreign delinquents.

Its objective: to mobilize by surfing the issue of insecurity, a theme identified as the weak point of Emmanuel Macron.
