Christian Estrosi is amazing! The echo of the referendum has barely faded, with a result that leans more towards a flop than a top, and here he is again, back in action to relaunch like a gambling addict: I lose the stake and I raise again…
And here we go from the “no” to the privatization of Nice airport to the privatization of all airports in France! Just that!
After the referendum (who thought of making people vote on a workday), we are starting again with an online petition, which is certainly simpler.
In fact, the tactic of throwing the hat ever higher is well known… it avoids dwelling on the result of the previous throw. But this does not guarantee success: at some point, the hat will return to the ground, and the height at which it was thrown will be judged.
We will remain unsatisfied, waiting to understand what game the mayor of Nice has decided to play. Sooner or later, the cards will have to be laid on the table, and things will become clearer.
Others are more incisive, like Gaël Nofri, an opposition municipal councilor in the Nice city council: “Once again, the Mayor of Nice is posing. He who presided over the extension of the privatization of France’s highways, he who was a member of the Government that turned airports into corporations, the first step towards privatization, now tries to oppose the privatization of French airports.
If the issue of national land use planning is an important matter from which the strategic State cannot be absent, I am wary of posturing. Thus, proof is made that after multiple takeovers in management, the costly and ineffective airport referendum was yet another expense paid by the people of Nice, whose sole purpose was to contribute to the communication plan of a man whose Elysian obsession turns into a crisis of delirium tremens.”
In the airport(s) case, isn’t it time for everyone to land, don’t you think?
