The rallying of Philippe de Villiers for the presidential majority is decidedly not as a letter in the mail. After the Secretary of State for Justice and ex-socialiste Socialists, which was last week, this approximation "neither trivial nor easy", it is the former Minister of housing Christine Boutin, who typed the fist on the table. "Want to mix the water and fire, in General, this works not (...). "Force to twist the rope, she eventually break", she said yesterday at the "Parisian", stressing that Philippe de Villiers has "very distant" positions are adopted, particularly on immigration. The reply was immediate: "Should not make the resentment to no longer participate in the Government for the moment take positions that are generally hostile", told on France Info Jean-Claude Gaudin, who chairs the liaison committee of the majority.
Eric Besson, Deputy Secretary General of the UMP and ex-socialiste, he also was responsible for his side to answer Socialists, ensuring that the rally would not "switch the centre of gravity" of the majority, since the reference remains "presidential project".
The nature of the sent signal
There is of course a personal dimension in the criticism. Evincée of the Government in June, Christine Boutin defends the representation of his (the Christian Democratic Party) training on future regional lists: it requires "at least 40 elected", otherwise it would be "a declaration of war".
Jean-Marie Bockel, who did not appreciate that Philippe de Villiers to take the penalty to meet Eric Besson and not him, asked that the liaison committee of the majority is a "place of substantive debate" and not a shell simply charged to ratify decisions taken between the Elysee and the leadership of the UMP. Both implicitly questioning the functioning of the majority.
On the merits, the debate on the nature of the political signal sent and the place of election tactics. Enjoying little reserve of votes for the second round of the next deadlines (regional and presidential), Nicolas Sarkozy has chosen to expand up his basement in first round to create a winning dynamic. The rallying of Philippe de Villiers is part of this tactic and increases the chances of the right to regain the region Pays de la Loire in passing. Elaborate by the leaders of the UMP, thus addressed political signal is "the gathering at the point where the left is divided".
But other, less senior, fear that voters retain especially the Euroscepticism and very right-handed positions of the President of the MPF. "The tensions appear inevitably", said recently the President of the young radicals, Annabelle Ferry, while the new Member Centre Jean-Christophe Lagarde wanted for Philippe de Villiers put water in his wine"on Europe and promised vigilance of his training"whenever it will be close to those of Jean-Marie Le Pen speeches ".Even though its elected representatives are shared, the new Centre does not have the intention to make a case: "everyone knows that this is not him who will influence the agenda.". "Ourselves already have trouble to weigh," says party spokesman, Maurice Leroy. This will not prevent the new Centre to be vigilant on its representation in the regional.
