MP Maxime Minot, one of the few LRs openly supporting the opening of the PMA to all women, has been the subject of insults and threats on social networks, MPs supporting him Thursday in the hemicycle.
"I just learned that for several hours, one of our colleagues on the benches of the right of our hemicycle, receives threats extremely serious, extremely painful, dangerous, violent, under the pretext that it supports the PMA for all", said co-rapporteur Jean-Louis Touraine (LREM), deeming this "intolerable" during debates on the bioethics bill. The elected representatives of right and left present almost all rose to applaud the MP in question.
"You deserve to suffer"
Solicited by the AFP, Maxime Minot confirmed to have received "messages on the social networks" since his intervention in session Tuesday at the opening of the debates on this sensitive bill. Without wanting to dramatize, he evoked threats of the type "we are going to kill you", "you deserve to suffer". On his Twitter feed, some users also call him a "traitor".
On Tuesday, the MP said he "felt scorned or even marginalized", but refused to "keep his eyes closed in front of these complex situations" of women "expatriating" for LDCs.
After the intervention of Jean-Louis Touraine, Agnès Thill (formerly LREM), fierce opponent of the PMA for all, launched "it is valid for all!", The president of the special commission Agnès Firmin Le Bodo (UDI and independent) giving him reason.
