Theme evening for Eric Zemmour. On the move to Angiesmall town in the center of Oise, Saturday November 23, the president of Reconquête! came to meet the activists, drink Beaujolais and also discuss current events. Mainly, agricultural anger.
The evening began with the intervention by Sophie Lenaerts, the departmental president of rural coordination. Union known to be close to the part of the political spectrum to which Eric Zemmour’s movement is part. Even if she denies it. “We have our ideas,” she insists.
“It’s no longer audible”
Among these ideas, the manager recalls the opposition of this union to the implementation of the common agricultural policy at the beginning of the 1960s. “Everyone fell for it,” she laments. But the most recent agreement with Mercosur (Latin American countries editor’s note), has finished, according to her, finishing off the agricultural world.
“Standards are imposed on us that are not applied elsewhere, it is no longer understandable,” she continues. “We, the planters, have also learned about the reduction in our (exploited) surface areas for next year.”
“It felt like we were buying drugs.”
Eric Zemmour, for his part, recalls a memory when, when he was younger, he had lunch in the only Argentinian restaurant open in Paris. “We never knew how he brought in the meat from his country,” he says. “It felt like we were buying drugs.”
More seriously, regarding the crisis in the agricultural world, he believes that the problem is reversed. “For years, we have favored the consumer as the exclusive engine of French growth,” he explains. Whereas we should have favored the producer and his work. We ask them to produce at world prices, even though they have French costs.”
Immigration, same fight
And in this analysis, immigration is included. “We give them allowances to be able to consume,” insists Eric Zemmour.
Because the evening also allowed us to discuss, even briefly, the other favorite things about Reconquête!. Namely the “civilizational struggle,” against the “Islamization of France,” and other struggles against “Wokism” and their allies “in the left-wing media”…
