Patrick Kanner : « L’entêtement de Darmanin a poussé les feux et émeutes en Nouvelle-Calédonie »

The president of the Socialist group in the Senate and Senator for the Nord department, Patrick Kanner, was a guest on the morning show "Bonjour chez vous" (Good Morning at Home). He spoke about the Ripost law, which, among other things, allows for a better fight against drug trafficking, as well as the rise in fuel prices and the left's strategy for the presidential election. Another topic addressed was the question of expanding the electoral roll in New Caledonia. Patrick Kanner recalled the context that led to the 2024 riots: "It wasn't the reform of the constitutional law that triggered the 2024 riots. It was the stubbornness of the then-Minister, Mr. Darmanin, who brutally fanned the flames by saying, 'It will be this way and no other.'" Today there is a consensus regarding the electorate, because we took the time to reach this consensus and didn't force the issue as was the case in 2024. I remind you that in May 2024, the assessment was 14 deaths and over 2 billion in damages. Since then, New Caledonia has lost 12,000 jobs, 700 businesses have disappeared, and the GDP has fallen by 15% for an archipelago with a population of 300,000. [...] Compare that to mainland France; these figures would be absolutely unbearable for metropolitan France. » 🔴 To stay up-to-date on all political and parliamentary news, subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/publicse... 👉 Our website: http://www.publicsenat.fr ▶️ Watch all our replays: https://www.publicsenat.fr/replay 📬 Subscribe to our newsletter: https://bit.ly/NewslettersPublicSenat 🚀 Follow us on social media: Facebook:   / publicsenat   X:   / publicsenat   Instagram:   / publicsenat   LinkedIn:   / 2996809   Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/publicsenat.fr Threads: https://www.threads.net/@publicsenat TikTok:   / publicsenat
