INTERVIEW
"There are measures to be taken once the election passed," said Sébastien Lecornu, interviewed Tuesday on Europe 1. But according to Bruno Retailleau, president of the group Republicans in the Senate, "we must act without delay" because of the lists carried by elected "community" "can win in some cities, such as Garges-lès-Gonesse or Goussainville where there are a number of questions".
According to him, it will be too late after the municipal elections. "Imagine a community mayor who seizes a commune, and we want to punish him afterwards.He will call his troops to demonstrate and it will be disorder, and it will be clashes! So I think I must act before. This is the purpose of the bill that I will table in the Senate in the coming days to prohibit these candidacies, these lists for communitarian purposes ".
Bruno Retailleau believes that legally the proposal is not displeasing to his detractors: "In France, there is a mania for those who are not brave, to appeal before a law is passed to its character This is a form of legal intimidation, "he regrets.
