Une affiche tourne sur Facebook, annonçant la venue de Jean-Luc Mélenchon à Mende samedi 28 septembre à 18h30 à l'espace événements pour une réunion publique intitulée "Macron, destitution".

In early September, remarks made by Jean-Luc Mélenchon at the end of August provoked indignation in the department. The leader of La France Insoumise suggested that there was no intellectual elite in Lozère.

Indignation

The video relaying a few words spoken during the LFI summer university was playing on a loop, not failing to provoke strong reactions. And the Lozériens, who felt offended, cited the names of illustrious compatriots in response, or invited Jean-Luc Mélenchon to Lozère.

Is it a coincidence? He is precisely announced in Mende this Saturday, September 28, from 6:30 p.m. at the events space, for a public meeting entitled “Macron, Destitution”. This is announced by a poster circulating on Facebook at the beginning of the week.

We have no doubt that he will skillfully seize the opportunity to return to these remarks.
