Audrey Pulvar and Laurent Saint-Martin, PS and LREM candidates respectively in the regional elections in Île-de-France, agree on one point: their opposition to the RN.

A posture that they both reaffirmed on Monday, during the last televised debate on LCI.

“Will En Marche always be on the side of the Republic to form the republican front against the extreme right, systematically?

“Asked Audrey Pulvar, candidate supported by the Socialists, to Laurent Saint-Martin, candidate for the presidential majority.

"Yes and without a doubt yes, I will always block the National Front, I will always be part of those who defend the Republican front", replied the deputy for Val-de-Marne.

For Pulvar, Macron rather than Le Pen

"Emmanuel Macron will still not be my candidate in 2022," said the former journalist, suspended from the air in 2017 for having signed a petition calling to vote for Emmanuel Macron against Marine Le Pen in the in-between rounds.

But "if I have to choose between Emmanuel Macron and the extreme right, my vote will go anyway to Emmanuel Macron because it is imperative to block this party of hatred", said the deputy mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo.

Vice-president of the RN and candidate in Ile-de-France, Jordan Bardella described this exchange as a “Jean Moulin competition”.

Communist candidate and rebellious, Clémentine Autain accused outgoing president Valérie Pécresse (Libres !, ex-LR) of "following in the footsteps of the far right" with her proposals on security.

Precress on the security front

"We can see that there are two opposing social projects", replied the former minister of Nicolas Sarkozy, denouncing that "of a left which will unite with the extreme left".

It offers Ile-de-France residents to "stay the course for the security and values ​​of the Republic, the ecology of results and equal opportunities".

"I did what I said what I will do" during my first term, she assured, highlighting 650 new and renovated trains in 2021, a figure disputed by her opponents on the left.

“Most of the new trainsets were ordered by an environmental vice-president” in post before 2015, Julien Bayou replied.

"The last [transport revolution] that was implemented, that of environmentalists, is the Navigo pass at a single price," he said.
