“Never threatens the extreme right at the Elysée has been so strong”, which “imposes us to speak today to avoid this disaster scenario,” wrote the leaders of the two most large union plants, who want to “alert on the peril as Marine Le Pen represent and his party,” the national gathering.

According to the two men, “the national gathering has not changed”, and “as the national front in its time, it is deeply rooted in the history of the extreme French, racist, anti-Semite, homophobic, and sexist “. “We are two engaged actors who believe, despite their differences, to the strength of dialogue and collective action to build a more just society,” they add.

“The Rn is a danger”

“The national gathering is a danger for the fundamental rights of citizens” and “can not be considered as the Republican, respectful and guarantors of our motto, freedom, equality, fraternity,” they still say .

“Do not entrust him the keys to our democracy, at the risk of losing them,” conclude Laurent Berger and Philippe Martinez at the end of this tribune, where is never mentioned the name of Emmanuel Macron who will face Marine Le Pen on April 24 for the second round of the presidential election.
