“Chaos is you”: Mélenchon’s response to Elisabeth Borne

Lhe leader of the Insoumis Jean-Luc Mélenchon sent Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne his criticism of a search for chaos on Saturday, launching from the Lille clearance sale: “Chaos is you! “When we engage, as is normal in a democracy, our work as an opponent, […] we are constantly answered with insults, with questions, ”said the former presidential candidate, during a long speech from the stand of the left alliance Nupes. ” And M^me Terminal that says: the rebels want chaos. Pardon Madame, the chaos is you, ”accused Jean-Luc Mélenchon.

A week ago, he had promised for the return to politics “the general battle” against the government, and considered that a “countdown to the dissolution” of the National Assembly had begun. The head of government then criticized La France insoumise for “wanting chaos” rather than seeking to “find answers for the French”. But, retorted the Insoumis leader on Saturday, “it is you who have disorganized everything, it is you who are responsible for this rotten social return, this back to school which does not work, etc. “.

Faced with inflation and the energy crisis, the Insoumis leader believes that “the tax on superprofits [des entreprises], this is the first of the battles that must be won”. He also repeated his call for a “huge march on Paris” in October. This must “allow to enter into confrontation” with the policy of Emmanuel Macron, he said at the end of August. Shortly before on the same stand at the Lille sale, his lieutenant Adrien Quatennens, deputy for the North, had recalled that LFI is discussing “with the associations, the unions, all the Nupes parties to go as soon as possible in October towards a great national march against the high cost of living and for climate justice”.
