Asked about the dissolution of the National Assembly following the announcement of the results of the European elections, the deputy for the Lannion-Paimpol constituency, Éric Bothorel, reaffirms his “loyalty to the President of the Republic”. According to him, the announcement of the calling of new legislative elections is not the most serious event of June 9: “I am more stunned by the results of the National Rally (RN) than by the president’s desire to restore the word to the people. This is a major political fact but the president decided that the French had to be asked to express themselves. I support this decision beyond my personal case. In a world that lacks democracy, I think this is a good decision. »
“Each vote for the RN is one vote too many”
According to him, “every time there is a vote for the RN, it is one vote too many. But I want to believe that the voters who go to the RN voted elsewhere. All parties have a share of responsibility in the success of the RN, which is made up of men and women who are not all Nazis, even if we could think so when it was 3 or 5%.
The outgoing MP announces that he will campaign for a new mandate: “I will take the campaign very seriously. I will return to the voters with the course that is mine for the next three years. »
