Can Adrien Quatennens return to the political scene? Sandrine estimated on Sunday “impossible” to return immediately to the Assemblée Nationale, alors deputé du Nord to réagi à l’accident occurred in Lille samedi, sa première prize de parole depuis qu’il est visé par une main courante déposée par his wife.
If Adrien Quatennens, with the LFI label, admitted to domestic violence against his wife (including a slap), Sandrine Rousseau asks him to go further by showing “women, especially the abused, that their return could help in this fight.” She must clearly show what he “is willing to do,” she added on the Political Questions program about France InterFrance Télévisions, in collaboration with The world.
“The question (of the return) is not posed to me, it is posed to LFI and Adrien Quatennens”, however, recalled the deputy. The Insoumi recently evoked a “reflection” on a possible return to the Palais Bourbon of the northern deputy. He was on sick leave until recently.
“I tell you, it is impossible to return now on the eve of a demonstration against violence as if nothing had happened,” he said, referring to the demonstration against sexist and sexual violence organized on Saturday, November 19 by the #NousToutes collective.
“A slap is never trivial, it is a crime” and “justice must happen”, insisted Sandrine Rousseau.
“Now there is the issue that has not yet been addressed within the framework of MeToo, which is that of return and rehabilitation,” said the deputy for Paris. And to launch Adrien Quatennens: “There are 200,000 battered women, what are you capable of doing for them?”
Olivier Véran “very uncomfortable” at the idea of his return
When asked about BFMTV on Sunday, government spokesman Olivier Véran said he was “very uncomfortable” about a possible return, even if Adrien Quatennens “is not ineligible today.”
“In his private life, he has clearly been guilty of a serious crime (…) The behavior of a deputy in his private life must be all the more exemplary as he is called to represent others”, estimated Olivier Véran. Is Adrien Quatennens disqualified as a political actor? “Yes,” replied the minister.
A guest of Radio J, the president of the Assembly Yaël Braun-Pivet (Renaissance) shared a different opinion this Sunday. He considered, regarding Adrien Quatennens, that “today nothing prevents him from sitting on the seats of the National Assembly again”, in the absence of a conviction. “I appeal to everyone’s respect,” he demanded.
Sure public senate, the Insoumis Alexis Corbière had indicated this Thursday that there is “nothing established” but that “the president of the group” Mathilde Panot “has made it known that a reflection has begun” on a possible return of Adrien Quatennens in the Assembly. According to information from France Informationthe return of Adrien Quatennens would be considered “at the end of the month”.
