Guest of the program “Elysée 2022” on France 2, the environmental candidate Yannick Jadot castigated the record of outgoing President Emmanuel Macron on environmental issues.
On the offensive. The candidate of Europe-Ecology the Greens Yannick Jadot, who still does not take off in the polls – he is around 5% in our daily Ifop-Fiducial consultation -, was Thursday evening the guest of the France 2 program “Elysee 2022”. He first regretted that a member of the government did not come to debate with him on the set, a sign according to him that the Philippe and Castex governments have “no balance sheet” to present. “They didn’t do anything about ecology, about ending cage farming, about ending glyphosate. The Marshall plan on the renovation (of housing, editor’s note), Emmanuel Macron did not do it”, he explained, before criticizing the lack of government support for organic farming to the detriment of that provided to Total “which (destroys) the climate rather than redirecting it towards renewable energies”.
“He’s falling apart”
The MEP castigated the non-officialization of the candidacy for his possible re-election of Emmanuel Macron. “This president, twice condemned for climate inaction by the French courts, hides in this pre-campaign, he carapates, because he is the president of the lobbies”, he hammered. He then detailed the first measures he would put in place if he is elected on April 24, including the ban on hunting on weekends and during school holidays “In many European countries, hunting is banned several days a week and it is going very well,” he explained. No increase in gasoline or the carbon tax, on the other hand, so as not to penalize low incomes, while the price of energy increases.
