Marion Maréchal sent Saturday a new sign of his will to weigh in the political debate, without making the return that watch its impatient supporters, by bringing together in Paris figures of French conservatism, even irritate his party of origin, the Rassemblement national.
This well-publicized "convention of the right", as the organizers have called it, allows the niece of Marine Le Pen to continue to exist in the hearts of her supporters and to put to music her grand design: to achieve the union of straight down the wall between Republicans and the far right.
To this end, were invited the journalist and writer Eric Zemmour, the other star of the day, a member of the National Assembly in the person of Gilbert Collard, a deputy LR, Xavier Breton, the mayor of Béziers, Robert Ménard, and about twenty other intellectuals
and politicians accustomed to sailing in the same waters.
" I believe that the great political shift we are aiming for will be achieved precisely by this type of initiative, by the multiplication of islands of resistance within civil society ," Marion Maréchal said, sweeping the prospect
" a providential man " or " a providential woman ".
" I hear impatience and frustration (...) but who can sincerely imagine that our ideas will come to power without first breaking the partisan barriers of yesterday? She continued, calling for " building on the rock " not " on media shots ".
Marion Maréchal, who did not mention 2022, invited to " break definitively with the right of the accountants ". " These are not just ambitions of the right, they are French ambitions, " she said. The former benjamin of the National Assembly, which has put its political career in parentheses in 2017, has been multiplying the public outings in recent months - interviews, invitation to the Medef summer university (finally withdrawn by the employers' organization before the outcry raised) and soon, October 6, an appearance in the procession against the extension of medically assisted procreation (PMA).
So many interventions on the edge of metapolitics, to which the grand-daughter of Jean-Marie Le Pen promised to devote two years ago, and the political proper.
In June, the one who called herself Marion-Maréchal-Le Pen until last year, reunited LR members, including at least one deputy and a senator, for a dinner contrary to all uses. in force right since
1980s - the official doctrine is always that of cordon sanitaire around the party Lepeniste.

Eric Zemmour opened the meeting Saturday in Paris around Marion Maréchal, launching a violent charge against Islam and immigrants "colonizers".
Recently convicted for provoking religious hatred, Eric Zemmour, who was in Perpignan on Monday alongside the deputy RN Louis Aliot, ruled that the " problems aggravated by immigration are aggravated by Islam, " in a very violent speech against " colonizing " immigrants and " street Islamization ".
"Between living (and living) together, we must choose," he said, citing Renaud Camus, a follower of the conspiracy and controversial thesis of the "great replacement" of the European and Christian population by an immigrant and Muslim population. "Going back does not make a future. (...) All this brings together the fearful, "retorted the essayist Raphael Enthoven, the only opponent to speak. "Return to Algeria" launched someone in the room, who whistled when he spoke of the need to "take up crimes against humanity" so as not to "give to Frenchness all the attributes of communitarianism" .
In the face of a meeting presented as a simple exchange of ideas, the Mayor of Béziers Robert Ménard, supported by the RN, told participants: " We must stop talking about politics. You have to do it "to" confront reality ". He lambasted the " pessimism " of a " scared " right.
The meeting was concluded by American polemicist, Donald Trump's big supporter, Candace Owens, quoted as his inspiration by the Christchurch killer, who killed 50 worshipers in two mosques in the New Zealand city in March. A presence described as a " coup de maître " by the daily Le Figaro who devoted Friday a portrait of this " trumpiste de coeur, star of English-speaking social networks, where his iconoclastic statements on the racial issue are a hit ." " By inviting Candace Owens to the platform of her convention, Marion Maréchal surprises everyone and hits where it hurts. Better, it upsets the codes of the unique thought, of which one of the fundamental postulates is that one can not be black and of right ", judge Le Figaro .
