After the controversies aroused by the declarations of the environmental mayors of Lyon and Bordeaux, the former journalist Isabelle Saporta deplores "small comings" on Europe 1. "These chin strokes (...) make no sense because 'they are not up to the stakes, ”she said.
INTERVIEW
"One stupid idea a day".
Guest on Friday of the show "les Grandes Gueules" on RMC, Isabelle Saporta, ex-journalist, columnist, engaged in politics, castigated environmental mayors, caught up in many controversies in recent weeks.
The mayor of Lyon, Grégory Doucet, first stirred public opinion by judging the Tour de France "macho" and "polluting".
Then it was Pierre Hurmic's turn to face criticism for his decision not to install the "dead" Christmas tree on Place Pey-Berland, in Bordeaux.
"I do not understand that we continue to make small coms", laments Isabelle Saporta, on Europe 1.

"Fracturing remarks"
"These chin strokes, these fracturing remarks that we have seen since the beginning of the summer have no meaning because they are not up to the stakes," laments Isabelle Saporta.
"Do we have to go after everything popular every time? At the Tour de France, at the Christmas tree: no. We have so many other positive things to do, what 'we will be able to build together that I do not understand that we continue to make small coms'. "
Formerly a journalist for RTL and Europe 1 radios, where she chaired a "Court-Circuit" column, Isabelle Saporta then became involved in politics, first alongside Gaspard Gantzer, then with Cédric Villani during the municipal elections in Paris, in 2020. She is publishing this fall a pamphlet against technocracy,
"Rendez-vous la France!"
in which she makes the observation of a fractured country, where "the technostructure completely above ground invents a rule to the con every day to be able to martyr us".
"Incredible challenges"
"I have been green for twenty years and for months it is the most beautiful project there is, especially to create society", assures Isabelle Saporta "It is incredible the challenges that await these mayors today".
"You are the mayor of Lyon, you are the mayor of Bordeaux: have you seen the sites that there are on everything? Sustainable food, pollution, transport," she lists.
The companion of Yannick Jadot, head of the EELV list in the last European elections, assures him: his word will remain free.
"I have been criticized a lot, and it cost me dearly professionally, to be his companion. Fortunately, women have a free voice. We are an ecological couple each has its own ecosystem," she jokes.
