The job offers addressed to Guillaume Meurice have surely been numerous since his dismissal from France Inter on June 11. And they’re not just for humor columns.
According to information from Release, the comedian would have in fact been contacted by La France Insoumise to be a candidate in the next legislative elections. Unfortunately for the party, Guillaume Meurice declined the proposal.
Several party figures had supported Guillaume Meurice
It must be said that the political party was very upset after the announcement of the comedian’s dismissal. Manon Aubry had expressed her “full support” to Guillaume Meurice. MP David Guiraud told the National Assembly that he did not understand this decision. “I don’t see how we can be Charlie while gagging Charline’s gang. »
François Ruffin was even more radical. On X, he indicated that the first measure of the Popular Front (the new name of the alliance of left parties) would be “the reinstatement of Guillaume Meurice at France Inter » while the premiere of the National Rally would be “to deliver all public services to Vincent Bolloré”.
Guillaume Meurice was fired from the radio station after twelve years of collaboration. The management accused him of “repeated disloyalty” after the outcry caused by his column on Benjamin Netanyahu last October. He then compared the Israeli prime minister to a “a kind of Nazi but without a foreskin”.
Since his dismissal, the comedian has been very virulent towards his former employer. He notably published a long letter on his social networks. Guillaume Meurice evokes a filled management of France Inter of “unscrupulous souls” and with “an Excel table instead of the brain”. “But if there is any virtue at the end of our adventure, it is to expose their brutality to broad daylight. Behind their pseudo benevolence, their big smiles, their communication tricks, there are the chin blows, the baton blows”he blurted.
