Newly appointed Minister for Overseas Territories, Manuel Valls was invited this Tuesday, December 24, to the France Inter morning show. But while listeners were invited to ask him questions, one of them did not hesitate to insult him live.
Emmanuel Macron has made his choice. Michel Barnier having been forced to resign after the adoption of the motion of censure by the National Assembly, it is François Bayrou who was appointed as new Prime Minister. The founder of MoDem was subsequently tasked with forming a government and the least we can say is that he surrounded himself with faces well known to the French. Some return to government, others remain in their position, still others simply change ministries. But if there is one appointment that has gotten people talking, it is that of Manuel Valls as Minister for Overseas Territories.
Not only the former Prime Minister of François Hollande arrives in a very tense context due to recent events in Mayotte, but his return to government is also hotly contested. It must be said that until recently, he harshly criticized Emmanuel Macron for his management of the crisis in New Caledoniajudging his choices “criminals”. While he was invited this Tuesday, December 24 on the morning show of France Inter, an Internet user did not fail to tell him all the good things he thought of him…
Manuel Valls is insulted live by a listener
While listeners were able to ask questions to Manuel Valls, today's guest, one of them was particularly corrosive. “I would like to tell Mr Valls that he participated under Hollande in the destruction of the left, that he betrayed the PS and its candidate Benoît Hamonthat he went into exile in Spain and was thrown out. That he tried to rally around Macron and was not elected”listed the person concerned in reference to Manuel Valls' refusal to support the winner of the left-wing primary for the 2017 presidential election, his defeat in the Barcelona municipal elections in 2019 then to the French legislative elections in 2022.
The listener then went further, by directly insulting Manuel Valls. “You should be ashamed. You are the worst traitor, Mr. Valls. All of France is ashamed of your behavior. You're worse than a turd.”, he said before being interrupted by presenter Simon Le Baron, who clarified that this was not the question that the auditor had formulated on the switchboard... It is clear that he was smarter than the production!
