Only one list in Seine-Saint-Denis
“We are intractable on this sort of thing. From the moment he broke the rules, he no longer has the support of the RN, "said Stéphane Jolivet, adding that he was" not responsible for what Alain Mondino did "and stressing that the RN "does not support at all what he relays". Asked if he knew of his past publications, he replied that "he did not follow everyone's tweets". The RN will therefore only support a list in Noisy-le-Grand in Seine-Saint-Denis.
