Municipal: our ladies of Paris

Agnès Buzin has entered the campaign for the municipal elections in Paris. For her first salvo against Anne Hidalgo, she joined the Coronavirus dossier and the race for Paris by accusing the city of Paris of not being prepared to manage the epidemic. For his part, Rachida Dati accuses him of being a hearty.

The management of the coronavirus by the city of Paris is the first offensive of the candidate La République en Marche. Did the arrival of Agnes Buzyn in Paris change the lines?

It is clear that she arrived with the virus of politics. For her first salvo against Anne Hidalgo, she joined the Coronavirus dossier and the race for Paris by accusing the city of Paris of not being prepared to manage the epidemic. Replica of the Hidalgo camps, "Agnès Buzyn lied". This response has caused great relief in the team of the former minister where it is feared that she is too nice, this real quality should not become its weak point. Finally, "she enters the fight", blows a member of his campaign.

For his part, Rachida Dati accuses him of being a hearty.

"I learn quickly, it's true," says Agnès Buzyn. In public, she repeats "my project is central". In any case, it at least succeeded at the outset in centering the debate around it.

Between Anne Hidalgo, Rachida Dati and Agnès Buzyn, the challenge will be the ability to form alliances to create a majority on the evening of the first round. What is looming?

First of all, you should know that a merger has been planned in recent days between the Buzyn and Villani lists. Too complicated because of campaign accounts and invoices incurred from both sides, the agreement will therefore be made in the second round.

On the right, the situation could become sensitive between the two towers in the boroughs. Indeed, right mayors may be tempted to make agreements bypassing the instructions of the head of Dati list in order to keep their town halls.

A problem for the mayor of the 7th who is positioned well on the right.

There is no doubt that this Battle of Paris version 2020 will be a milestone. New world against old world, bikes against car. And a political novel about Hidalgo, Dati and Buzyn whose title could be "Nos dames de Paris".
