This Wednesday, November 27, 2024, Thomas Sotto was present on the airwaves of RTL. The former Télématin presenter then received Jean-Philippe Tanguy, deputy of the National Rally. And with the very tense political situation and the threat of censorship from the Prime Minister, all eyes are on Jordan Bardella's party.
“Is it a Prime Minister or a future former Prime Minister that you saw while watching Michel Barnier last night on TF1 at 8 p.m.?”Thomas Sotto then asked his guest.
To which the latter replied: “Listen, it's up to him to decide the fate he wants to give to his government. The question of Michel Barnier himself is not in question, (…) it's the political line that he decided”he said. “He assumed continuity with macronism without taking into account the elections. The deficit which should have been 5% would today be 5.4%…”,
list the politician who will suddenly be cut off by the journalist.
Thomas Sotto not convinced by his guest's remarks
Indeed, Thomas Sotto will notice: “Wait! Sorry, I'm interrupting you! I feel like I'm replaying the interview from the last time you were here.“launched the former sidekick of Marie Portolano. For the latter, Michel Barnier “still said things yesterday”in particular on the price of electricity and on proportional.
“Aren’t these two messages likely to relax you?”he says to Jean-Philippe Tanguy: “No way”he responds straight away. Indeed, the MP believes that “Michel Barnier has not made any visible progress in his reflections and his commitments to the main opposition party, the National Rally, and its allies with Éric Ciotti.”
Jean-Philippe Tanguy threatens censorship
Thus, the politician believes that “we did not understand this as an outstretched hand, above all we saw an extreme disconnection between Michel Barnier and the seriousness of the situation”. If he doesn't mince his words in front of Michel Barnier,
Jean-Philippe Tanguy believes he had a “interesting exchange” with the Prime Minister, Bruno Retailleau.
“But at the end of this exchange, Michel Barnier stuck to all of his positions,” he indicated, further threatening the government, specifying that “if the texts do not move, the government puts itself in a situation of censorship”. It therefore seems that the National Rally was not convinced by Michel Barnier.
