“We are in the 21st century, enough is enough!” At the microphone of the parliamentary channel, in the middle of the last night of debates about purchasing power, the environmentalist deputy Sandrine Rousseau, tired, lashed out this Friday the sexism that persists within the chamber.
“As soon as there is a woman who speaks, there are deputies who say ‘Shut up, shut up, calm down’, ‘have a little chamomile’, who personally insult them. We can’t live with that. We are in 2022. We are in the 21st century, enough is enough, damn it!” He denounced at 1:30 a.m. past LCP.
“You cannot have personal insults, nor can you have machismo in this Assembly as it currently exists,” he lamented.
“We are facing a complete wall”
Her position as a defender of the climate in the examination of this economic text to deal with inflation and the energy crisis has accentuated the invectives of her opponents. On the ecological issues in the openings, “we are facing a complete wall”, she exasperated her.
“The problem is that we can’t take the invective either. We cannot have deputies who get up in session to explain to us that ecology is harming the world, we cannot listen to that”, he lamented.
Criticism against the Greens has increased especially during this last night of debates. “Schrologists!” he rebuked the RN deputy Jean-Philippe Tanguy, accusing the left of being “energetic null”. “Green Ayatollahs,” joked his colleague RN Julien Odoul.
Renaissance MP Stéphane Vojetta tweeted during the week that he preferred the elected environmentalist, the parody Twitter account particularly aggressive towards the MP, “Sardine Ruisseau”.
He was responding to a brief phrase from the Parisian parliamentarian released on Wednesday. “You will almost make us regret Manuel Valls”, Sandrine Rousseau had sent him with a smile before admitting almost immediately “he is small, he is small, stop!”.
Without speaking of sexism in the strict sense, the majority deputy, Violette Spillebout, denounced an “extremely shocking” environment on the parliamentary channel. With “invectives”, “insults”, “personal challenges”.
