There was mention of the dissatisfaction of a certain number of National Front activists following the announcement of the list that candidate Marie-Christine Arnautu had made official. Catherine Garcia, the spokesperson, even issued a challenge: “We also note the absence of an official reaction from the national authorities, who we know, moreover, have been perfectly informed of our actions.”
And added; “In any case, Marie-Christine Arnautu and Gaรซl Nofri should know that many ’embittered and unsuccessful’ people are joining us. We wish them good luck in completing their list! Perhaps we will even submit one before theirs?”
The verbally violent reaction and various accusations that followed did not remain without consequence.
The axe has fallen, and those considered to be the originators of this “rebellion” have been sanctioned with a suspension, as a precautionary measure, pending their summons before the movement’s Conflict Commission.
Will these “dissidents” decide to change their allegiance and still participate in the municipal election under different colors?
A certain Jacques Peyrat must be rubbing his hands…
Official FN statement:
