It is Monday, during a press conference, that the Minister of Justice will say more about an “unprecedented” reform of this school based in Bordeaux, in the southwest of France, announces

Le Parisien Dimanche.

In the entourage of the Minister of Justice, one suggests to this newspaper that Eric Dupond-Moretti wants to modify "in depth" the functioning of the National School of the Magistrature.

As a reminder, on Friday, the Minister of Justice launched an administrative investigation into three magistrates of the national financial prosecutor's office, despite the conclusions of the General Inspectorate of Justice which had largely cleared this prosecutor's office for its investigations into the "

mole

" by Nicolas Sarkozy in the so-called “ 

tapping

 ”

affair

, otherwise known as the “ 

Paul Bismut affair

 ”.

Storm again, but at the pool this time, raised by the burkini denounced by the ecologist Yannick Jadot.

There must have been a swell at the Federal Council of the Europe Ecology party the Greens, meeting since Saturday and still behind closed doors this Sunday in Paris.

Environmentalists were shocked by statements in

L'Obs

by their leading MEP.

Wondering about political Islam, Yannick Jadot in fact denounces what he himself calls "

community withdrawal

".

In this interview, Yannick Jadot further affirms that “

the Saudis are instrumentalizing the pilgrimage: in France, Mecca is always open for young people from the suburbs because there is a company to shape minds,

” he said.

Before releasing the sentence: “

The burkini, it has nothing to do in a swimming pool!

".

"

Ouh the villain

",

marries

Marianne

!

Yannick Jadot, potential candidate of environmentalists in the next presidential election "

would hunt on the lands of Manuel Valls!"

".

Manuel Valls calls for not being "

naive

" in the face of Islamism.

In an interview with the

Journal du Dimanche

, this former socialist prime minister believes that “

the real subject is the battle against Islamism, political Islam, the Muslim Brotherhood and the Salafists.

We must take back the lost territories of the Republic

”, insists Manuel Valls in the

JDD

.

Remembering the word "

separatism

" used by Emmanuel Macron himself, and the government bill on this subject this fall, it is "

on October 2

" that the French president will deliver his speech on "

separatism

", announces

Le Journal du Dimanche

.

This prediction that could sound like a real note of hope for humanity.

The coronavirus pandemic could be defeated in two years

.

"

40 billion dollars is enough to vaccinate the whole world

".

The goldsmith who signs this note of hope is Bill Gates.

Smiling confident, artistically sketched on the front page of

L'Express

, the founder of Microsoft, now at the head, with his wife Melinda, of the charitable foundation that bears their name, hopes that in "

two years

", we will be able to put end to the pandemic.

"

It is possible, on three conditions

, he told

L'Express

:

we must accelerate the availability of the vaccine against the virus, ensure that we manufacture it in large quantities and at low cost, and finally demonstrate generosity so that everyone has access

”.

Why 40 billion?

Do the math

, explains Bill Gates to

L'Express

,

at the rate of two doses per person, at $ 3 per dose, for a population of 7 billion people, forty billion dollars are enough to immunize the whole world

!

".

That Bill Gates knows how to count had certainly not escaped

L'Express

.

But " 

the eradication of polio in Africa, which became effective at the end of August

,

can be largely attributed to it

 ", underlines, admiringly, this weekly.

The French ambassador to Côte d'Ivoire was recalled to Paris by the Quai d'Orsay for cases of a sexist and sexual nature.

According to Mediapart, Gilles Huberson "

is targeted by an internal investigation by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

" after being "

accused of gender-based and sexual violence by at least five women

".

This online newspaper assures that a "

general inspection

(...)

took place in July

" on this affair, and that "

the accounts collected concern facts in several countries, including Mali

and Côte d'Ivoire

, (going)

from remarks deemed degrading for women to unwanted sexual gestures

”.

So, yes, notice of a gale, from the swimming pool to the Ebrié lagoon ...
