Man of ideas? Bof. Man of dialogue? Not really. Man in the field? We must believe. Friday, January 27, Gérald Darmanin was passing through the Spa refuge in Chamarande, in Essonne. Passembled by his colleague of agriculture, Marc Fesneau, the Minister of the Interior took the opportunity to reveal his new action plan against animal abuse. Without waiting, the tenant of Beauvau embarked on his implementation by himself carrying out the inspection of the cages of the establishment. What efficiency!
a real camouflaged
For the occasion, the minister was entirely dressed in navy, but see no wink at the uniform of the men he directs … No, that day, the first police officer in France wore Simply the panoply of modern politicians who want to embody the function without the clothing question being submitted to him. Indeed, wearing a too narrow navy suit, a marine tie too softly knotted and an overcoat overly short of about twenty centimeters has become, in times that run, a relentless tactic to avoid being noticed.
marinated chickens
Since we are there and there are always parts of Trivial Pursuit to be won, let’s take advantage of the opportunity to recall that the dominant of the navy in the police on a global scale is an English heritage. At its foundation, in 1829, the London police had to choose a color to distinguish themselves from British soldiers, dressed in a red and white uniform. The marine color was chosen for its discretion and ease of maintenance. New York police did the same a few years later. Before the French follow the fashion in turn.
orange without seeds
Along the sides of Gérald Darmanin, this manager of the local spa opted for a different color code and strategy. If the navy ensures anonymity, this gray outfit of orange accents allows you to be noticed. This shade of orange, commonly known as Safety Orange or Blaze Orange, is even precisely renowned for its ability to guarantee, like fluorescent yellow, increased visibility in risky times. Which will make a beautiful leg for the dogs of the refuge: the orange is one of the few colors that the best friend of the man does not perceive.
red throat
Finally, impossible not to mention this man with the red scarf here. Indeed, it perpetuates a long stylistic tradition based not on a search for elegance or comfort, but of course the ambition to distinguish itself from the mass. Unsurprisingly, this purple accessory was thus worn over time by political figures like Jean-Luc Mélenchon, Ségolène Royal or François Mitterrand … But it is at the painter Toulouse-Lautrec that we must address our recriminations. He was indeed the first to make the red scarf his egotic comforter.
