“Leave us alone… let us work” David Lisnard

David Lisnard, President of the Mayors of France and Mayor of Cannes, comes to take stock of the 106th Congress of Mayors at the microphone of Wendy Bouchard.

“We don’t want the government to draw on our efforts to feed the bottomless pit of a state that never reforms,” affirms David Lisnard, in the preamble. There is great concern among elected officials who fear unjustified levies and efforts that the State itself does not apply.

David Lisnard warns against the violence expressed locally, particularly against elected officials and municipal staff.

He also criticizes the standards imposed on municipalities, like those imposed on farmers, which paralyze and dangerously threaten their activities. “Farmers and mayors same fight”. He also recalls that 20% of Mayors are farmers.

Among other subjects, it also returns to the fight against drug trafficking which must be the subject of exceptional and joint mobilization of the Ministries of the Interior, of Justice but also of the tax services which must hit the wallets of drug traffickers and track down obvious money laundering operations. “We have one murder or attempted murder per day in France” he laments, the war against drugs must be waged on all fronts.
