Following the Committee meeting on May 9, Gérald Darmanin asked the prefects to ban far-right demonstrations. Marion Maréchal reacted to this request.
The meeting of the Committee, on May 9 in Paris, had aroused polemic. A controversy that visibly motivated Gerald Darmanin Act. Indeed, last Tuesday, the Minister of the Interior announced that he had asked the prefects “to ban all demonstrations of the ultra-right”. Like Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne, Gérald Darmanin had deemed this demonstration “unacceptable” where nearly 500 hooded people bore Celtic crosses. “We will let the courts judge whether case law will allow these demonstrations to be held.“also added Gérald Darmanin.
Remember that on Tuesday, May 9, nearly 600 Committee activists demonstrated in Paris. An initiative to commemorate the 29th anniversary of the death of an activist far right, Sebastien Deyzieu. The latter died following an accident in 1994. The demonstrators of the Committee, hooded and dressed in black, had exhibited black flags marked with the Celtic cross. “Europe – Youth – Revolution“, had shouted these demonstrators at the end of the rally. Which corresponds to the slogan of the defense union group.
Marion Maréchal: “I find it hypocritical, cowardly, dangerous”
“I’m always embarrassed by the fact that there are people who come hooded in demonstrations“had announced from the outset Marion Marshal during his interview on bfmtv, this May 11th. Only, she had announced that she was more worried by the statements of Gérald Darmanin. “This means that behind that, there is the government’s desire to muzzle the opposition that might want to denounce, through demonstrations, the link between immigration and delinquency.“she announced.
She also spoke about the decision of the Minister of the Interior to leave it to case law to sort out. “Excuse me, but when does a politician explain that he washes his hands of it?“launched Marion Maréchal, adding :” I find it hypocritical, cowardly, dangerous“.
