With the publication of a new issue of its newspaper, the Villeneuve group in common leaves
Time flies. There are only 15 months left before the next municipal elections, in 2026. If the time for the electoral campaign is still far away, there are signs that are unmistakable. Two weeks ago, it was on the side of the hard right that we observed movements, with the joining of municipal councilor Freddy Gueudin to Eric Ciotti's UDR. But at the start of the week, it was the left that advanced a few pawns.
After several months of absence, the Villeneuve group in common has released a new issue of its newspaper. If the association is still chaired by Maëlle Blazejczyk, it is the leading figure of the political movement Thomas Bouyssonnie who signs the first page – and displays his portrait in large size. Since this fall, the man who is also departmental advisor and president of Habitalys, has shown himself more than ever. In this issue therefore, Villeneuve in common takes aim at the financial management of the municipality. But above all, launches an appeal to Villeneuvois to come and add to the ideas box…
Backlash
This written diatribe towards the City's financial choices took concrete form in words, during the last municipal council. Frédéric Ladrech, yesterday's opponent and now on the same line as Thomas Bouyssonnie's group, became its spokesperson. Level of debt, choice of investments, criticisms are not new. But the backlash from the majority was not long in coming, referring to the results of the Cassany years and citing the “nonsense” of the Villeneuve left-wing newspaper.
Vigorous responses from the Régnier-Lepers majority which give the impression of “remotivation”. It's up to her not to wake up too late, while the adversaries are already thinking about future deadlines.
