POLITICS – This is the sequence to remember from the debate between the seven candidates for mayor of Paris this Tuesday March 10 on France Info, five days before the first round of municipal elections.
Shortly after 10 p.m. Rachida Dati attacked Agnes Buzyn in all directions, making the former Minister of Health and candidate LREM her main opponent in this second televised campaign debate.
“Maybe you are used to appointments, cooptations, it makes me angry because I work, I always worked”, launched the candidate LR to her rival, after a question about second round alliances.
“Why are you attacking me?”
“What is bothering you, the dynamic?”, Continues the mayor of the 7th arrondissement of the capital, who is ahead of the LREM candidate by several points in the polls and who has already come out on top of some during the campaign.
“I don’t understand why you are attacking me, I remind you that the mayor of Paris is here,” Agnès Buzyn first tried, pointing to Anne Hidalgo.
“We are not in Koh-Lanta there”
“We are not in Koh-Lanta there, it is not alliances between you and to whom you give the necklace of immunity, Madame Buzyn!”, Continues, virulent, the former minister of Nicolas Sarkozy, faithful to his nickname of “gunslinger”. Candidate LR intended to denounce the good points awarded by Agnès Buzyn to the programs of EELV candidates David Belliard and dissident LREM Cédric Villani, when she was questioned, like the other candidates, on the ideas which she felt close to in her rivals . Most having kicked in touch.

Agnès Buzyn takes over: ”I simply say to Ms. Dati that we are all committed with as much conviction in this election. I took risks, I left a post of minister ”, argues the candidate LREM, which earned her several criticisms on social networks, in particular from the Hidalgo camp, like here, the senator from Paris David Assouline.

“I am not named, I am hired to win an election,” replied Emmanuel Macron’s candidate before being interrupted by Rachida Dati: “You are going to be appointed to the position of human rights defender. You already have a first aid station just in case ”. A spade which left a moment of floating on the plateau.
“How do you allow yourself Madame Dati?”
“How do you allow yourself, Madame Dati?” Repeated Agnes Buzyn twice, visibly surprised by this attack. “I allow myself, this is what I read, what I heard,” assumes the former Keeper of the Seals, very confident.
A hypothesis raised by The letter a, as spotted by several Internet users following the debate.
