The first round of the legislative elections has barely ended when the campaign for the second begins. It is in this context that TF1 announced this Monday July 1 a special edition of its 8 p.m. news, presented by Gilles Bouleau.
“Where are the women?” asks Marine Tondelier
The journalist will receive on set four representatives of the four main political families, namely: Prime Minister Gabriel Attal, President of the National Rally Jordan Bardella, President of the Republicans of the Hauts-de-France region Xavier Bertrand and European MP Place publique and member of the New Popular Front Raphaël Glucksmann. The four men will take turns on Gilles Bouleau’s set and will answer his questions one by one.
Upon the announcement of this exceptional device, the national secretary of the Ecologists Marine Tondelier, who is part of the New Popular Front, reacted on her X account (ex-Twitter) by mentioning TF1: #OùSontLesFemmes? She is also campaigning to face Jordan Bardella in a debate between the two rounds.
