According to information from Marsactu, on February 22, during a meeting of the Pointe-Rouge port council in Marseille, a body set up by the Aix-Marseille-Provence metropolis, the president of the Pointe-Rouge Yachting club -Rouge, in charge of the management of this port in the south of the city, made racist and vehement remarks towards the “Arabs” present near the site.

In a recording that our colleagues have obtained, Christian Tommasini affirms: "The day when it is necessary to arm, I will be the first to go to ratonnade!"

Words which, obviously, amuse the vice-president LR of the metropolis Didier Réault, present during this meeting.

"You stigmatize ...", he says playfully.

"There are enough of the Arabs"

A little earlier, during this same meeting, Christian Tommasini complained about the presence of "Arabs" in the parking lot of the port.

"Not a blond, a white man, one who is quite as it should be, no, only Arabs!"

".

The latter even said: 

"

 I am not a racist, but now there are enough Arabs.

You can't do anything anymore without an Arab pissing you off.

"

Several Marseille politicians immediately reacted and expressed their emotion.

On Twitter, the deputy mayor in charge of the sea, the ecologist Hervé Menchon, declared to suspend all grant requests made by Christian Tommasini.
