Marine Tondelier is running for the head of the EELV, wanting to put an end to “individualism”

The municipal councilor of Hénin-Beaumont had been advocating for several weeks for a complete revision of the movement and supported a referendum proposing the simplification of EELV’s statutes.

The municipal councilor of Hénin-Beaumont Marine Tondelier announced on Monday her candidacy for the position of national secretary of the EELV to “refound” the party that “has suffered too much from individualism.”

This close friend of the former national secretaries Cécile Duflot, David Cormand and Julien Bayou is one of the favorites in the succession of the latter, who resigned from his post after the accusations of psychological violence made by his former partner. However, a congress was already planned to replace it in December.

“Our project is radical”

Who has notably supervised the organization of the “Summer Days” in recent years insists on the need for ecologists, after a period marked by the televised questioning of Julien Bayou by Deputy Sandrine Rousseau, to be “collective.”

“Our project is radical. It’s something we have in common. We must also be radical in the collective, in ethics and in example. Being as demanding with ourselves as we are with others”.

“Our movement has suffered too much from individualism”

The regional councilor of Hauts-de-France speaks of her “fed up”, emptying out Sandrine Rousseau, whose “ecofeminist” line should be represented in congress by Mélissa Camara.

“Our movement has suffered too much from individualism. From the twittization of politics. From the search for the little phrase or the controversy that allows a person to break the sound barrier… while the collective goes against the wall, all in short (…) How can we get our movement out of the metropolises, if our debates are do in 280 characters in a social network?

On the alliance side, he estimated in his motion text, complementary to his statement on Monday, that Nupes had only a “relative” success during the legislative elections, and proclaimed: “Let us affirm our ambition to make political ecology the engine of the unit”. .
