Anger directed against parliamentarians. In one week, more than thirty deputies saw their permanence in the regions degraded by farmers who were protesting against the consequences of government censorship, deplored the President of the National Assembly, Yaël Braun-Pivet, on Wednesday, December 11.
“Distress and concerns, however legitimate they may be, cannot be expressed through intimidation of democratically elected representatives,” said the MP in a press release, who “strongly condemns” these degradations.
The president of the hemicycle “will ensure that each deputy victim of this damage is supported by the services of the National Assembly in the process of filing a complaint and can benefit from functional protection when this proves necessary”she added.
Walled, painted, covered with manure or waste: these protest actions, most often claimed by the agricultural union FNSEA, mainly targeted deputies from the New Popular Front (NFP) and the National Rally (RN), who voted government censorship last week.
Angry farmers consider that censorship has suspended the realization of the promises made by the deposed government to respond to the agricultural crisis.
