Do not cross “an impassable limit”. This is the objective launched by the deputy Les Républicains (LR) of Lot Aurélien Pradié. The politician spoke on Wednesday of his distancing from the words of his party colleague Bruno Retailleau. Mr. Retailleau had caused a controversy a week ago by assuring that there was “a kind of regression towards the ethnic origins” of the rioters and a link between immigration and the recent riots.

The deputy regrets “a revival of race war”

The leader of the protest against the pension reform at the LR group is increasingly widening the distance with his former rival Bruno Retailleau. “On the other hand, I do not accept the words of Bruno Retailleau on the” ethnic regression “to evoke the rioters”, he indicates to World.

For the MP, “political incorrectness” and “the apparent intellectualization of the evils of society” cannot distance the right from its “fundamental values”. According to him, Bruno Retailleau’s decision to take sides is “an impassable limit” if the right does not want to disappear”. The politician even mentions the tenors of the Gaullist right Charles Pasqua and Philippe Séguin, who “would not have fallen into a revival of race war”.

Link between violence and “uncontrolled immigration”

Although Aurélien Pradié maintains his distinction of positions with Bruno Retailleau, he recognizes the importance of “radical proposals to address the situation” and “to be up to the challenges of the country”. The deputy indicates in particular the importance of the restoration of “the republican order”. Distinguishing himself from the senator, Pradié puts forward a link between “uncontrolled immigration” and the violence. In the same line, the politician also considers that “there is a complete divorce in certain neighborhoods and a hatred of France”.

Mr. Pradié’s remarks were immediately condemned by Senator LR Stéphane Le Rudulier, close to Mr. Retailleau: “We do not torpedo without courage through the media the president of the Senate group without even talking to him”, he said. he reacted on Twitter.
