Marine Le Pen ruled Thursday that the Minister of Justice Eric Dupond-Moretti "cannot stay" in his post after the outcry aroused by his arms of honor Tuesday in the hemicycle of the National Assembly.
"I think he can't stay", estimated on France Inter the boss of RN deputies, for whom "what is serious is that he benefits from a form of impunity on the part of Emmanuel Macron and Elisabeth Borne".
"Can you stay when you are Minister of Justice and you behave like this towards national representation?", she insisted, accusing him of "vulgarities" who are "retreating the France of good manners, the well-bred France to which we are all attached".
Furious that the boss of deputies LR Olivier Marleix lists the convictions, indictments or investigations concerning members of the presidential camp, including the Minister of Justice, Eric Dupond-Moretti had made two arms of honor.
The executive condemned the behavior of the Keeper of the Seals but without sanctioning him while several voices in the opposition are calling for his resignation.
"This behavior has no place in the hemicycle," Elisabeth Borne argued to the minister on Tuesday evening in a telephone interview, the entourage of the head of government told AFP.
A lack of sanction signs "a kind of impunity" and sends "a disastrous signal", estimated the socialist deputy Jérôme Guedj.
"I do not want anything, I want the President of the Republic to take his responsibilities in the face of this kind of behavior", replied Thursday on RFI Olivier Marleix, on the fate of the minister.
"Either it bothers the President of the Republic, or it doesn't bother him. If it doesn't bother him, it seems embarrassing to me," he added.
