The underside of the Prime Minister’s non-visit, the return of Ribas, Dupont-Giscard d’Estaing … Indiscretions of the week in Eure-et-Loir


The bottom of a report

Jean Castex, Prime Minister, and Bruno Le Maire, Minister of the Economy and Finance, were expected in Chartres, Saturday, November 28, for the reopening of so-called non-essential businesses, one month after the entry into force of the reconfinement leading to their administrative closure.

Jean Castex and Bruno Le Maire in Chartres: their visit postponed

If this trip did not tick all the necessary conditions, in this period of pandemic, had suggested Fadela Benrabia, the prefect of Eure-et-Loir, the postponement of this visit to 2021 has in any case made gloss in the political landerneau local.

Among the hypotheses mentioned, the one according to which Philippe Vigier (Modem and related Democrats), deputy for Châteaudun, would have made the forcing to integrate a reduced list of personalities and officials, where he did not appear.

“It’s intoxication,” assures the person concerned. I was invited. I even had Bruno Le Maire and Guillaume Kasbarian (LREM deputy for Chartres, editor’s note) on the phone. »Other sounds of the bell highlight the few hooks that exist between Jean-Pierre Gorges, mayor of Chartres, and Bruno Le Maire, regularly in the sights of the elected representative of Chartres, especially since his merger with the presidential majority, while he was a candidate for the primary on the right, in 2016, and potential presidential candidate against Emmanuel Macron.

The same supporters of this hypothesis of a diplomatic bickering between Chartres and Bercy evoke the petition launched in early November by Jean-Pierre Gorges, on behalf of independent Mayors, in order to support small so-called non-essential shops: an initiative not aligned with the Crisis management roadmap, likely to displease Matignon’s side

Neither of these two lines of thought seems to resist the postponement of this trip to Chartres, promised by the Prime Minister, according to the prefect of Eure-et-Loir.

There he is again!

Unsuccessful candidate for the senatorial in Savoy, in 2017, Romain Ribas, municipal councilor of Meslay-le-Vidame, had expressed the wish to commit to the senatorial in Eure-et-Loir, in September, before giving up running for a seat in the upper house. But not another mandate. Two months later, at the end of November, the ex-Mainvillois presented himself, without success, for the regional presidency of the MoDem, won without emotion by the outgoing president of the movement in the Center-Val de Loire region, Franck Piffault, credited with more than 82% of the votes. Jean Bousquié, from Orléans, finished in second position (9.6%) and Romain Ribas in last place in this three-way duel (8.2%), where his score greatly exceeded his modest Savoy result of 2017 (0 , 53%).

Dupont only.

If he’s an ex-journalist from The Republican Echo, Dominique Martin, who had the scoop of VGE invited to the wedding of his first cousin’s daughter at La Framboisière, in the seventies, Le Canard enchaîné was not to be outdone on this one. Also in the secret, the satirical newspaper had learned that the daughter of the cousin of the President of the Republic was married to a Versaillais named Dupont. The Duck had somewhat mocked the Giscard d’Estaing family by announcing that the girl “would henceforth be called Dupont like everyone else”. A good word that made our colleague smile, very happy, during that time, to see Paris Match and Point of view arguing over photos taken at La Framboisière.

The return to 90 km / h, effective since Tuesday, December 1, was validated by the Departmental Council on eight Eurelian axes, or 240 km of roads (out of the 7,500 in the Eure-et-Loir). This choice was validated by the departmental road safety commission, after more than a year of reflection.
