According to him, it is a controversy that has no place. The High Commissioner for Planning and head of the MoDem François Bayrou was the guest of Face to face with Apolline de Malherbe on BFMTV and RMC this Tuesday. He was questioned in particular about Emmanuel Macron’s jet ski outing during his vacation at Fort de Brégançon and considered the criticism coming, particularly from the left, on this subject “ridiculous”.
“This is all absolutely ridiculous. It’s demagoguery, it’s nice, whatever you want, but it’s ridiculous. The consumption of a jet ski is the consumption of a motorcycle”, advances the mayor of Paul.
“If the President of the Republic had ridden an hour of motorcycling on the roads of Brégançon, would it have been enough to say that it is a crime, since the word was used?”, he continues.
“Criminal of not understanding” global warming
A thinly veiled reference to the words of EELV deputy Sandrine Rousseau, who considered it “criminal” not to “understand” global warming and its challenges. The elected official had criticized Emmanuel Macron’s vacation photos, once shown aboard a canoe, then on a jet ski.
“It summarizes France’s policy in the fight against global warming. We have advertising effects and communication effects,” estimated Sandrine Rousseau in mid-August at RMC.
Critics who do not go through François Bayrou, who believes this Tuesday that “we spend our time poisoning public opinion with ridiculous topics.”
