VIDEO – Guest of the RTL morning show, the deputy for Somme lost his temper after the column by Martial You, François Lenglet’s replacement.
In the middle of a promotional tour for his new film Get to work! with Sarah Saldmann, François Ruffin was invited this Thursday, November 7 on the RTL morning show. The left-wing MP, questioned about the American elections by Thomas Sotto, quickly deviated from the initial subject. Particularly after the column by the economics specialist Martial You which obviously was not to the taste of the former Insoumis.
In his column, the editorialist discussed the closure of numerous Auchan and Michelin sites and the resulting job cuts. The journalist also mentioned the reaction of Prime Minister Michel Barnier. The new tenant of Matignon announced that he wanted “ know “what these big groups did” public money donated ”, then added: “ I’m not proud […] of a policy that would destroy jobs, never “. An outing which, according to Martial You, was imbued with “ demagogy “. François Lenglet’s replacement then proposed measures to avoid the dismissal of employees of French companies.

It is therefore on these solutions that François Ruffin was strongly opposed. “ I will make a right of reply “, rushes the 49-year-old man. “ I find it great to write a column on Michelin and not include the word dividend, it’s still extraordinary: a tripling of dividends in three years and nothing is said about the gigantic sums swallowed by the shareholders », declares the one who was re-elected with NUPES.

« This is not the subject », the columnist tries to defend himself. “ But yes, that’s the subject », the man on the left responds quickly. The morning presenter then tries to come to the rescue of his columnist. “ This is not a lawsuit against Martial You », intervenes Thomas Sotto ironically. Obviously determined not to give up, Ruffin continues: “ It’s not a trial, but it turns out that he speaks every morning and he’s there, next to me, I can’t not react », he adds.
The atmosphere finally ends with a friendly exchange between the two men. “ I salute the columnist [ …] I exercise my right of reply », declares the elected official with a smile. “ You are right, but we do not say the opposite », replies Martial You. The sequence ends in good humor, and Ruffin concludes: “ Democracy is conflict, organized, institutionalized conflict, but it is not the negation of disagreements. »
