Manuel Valls : “The left can win if it defends its balance sheet” – The Point

The left “can win the presidential election if it defends its balance sheet”, Manuel Valls is convinced of this. Guest of the Grand Jury RTL/LCI/ Le Figaro, the Prime minister explained “enough of that left to be ashamed to assume the responsibilities (…) It’s enough to be depressed, to be ashamed ; governing France, it is a huge pride”, he assured during the interview, where, from the outset, he said he “came to break the house down”. An expression already used, on the right, mr Francois Fillon, in view of the primary for 2017.

The First minister defends the record of his chair

During the show, Manuel Valls has shown that it was not in a dynamic with a positive attitude and that he was willing to campaign alongside president François Hollande. “I don’t the on the impediment of the president of the Republic or the defeat of the left. The policy, it is a matter of belief, not of polls. I have enough of them that one chooses in place of French. The presidential election, it is in April and may,” he added. While unemployment has increased by 1.4% in August, and that François Hollande has conditioned a new candidate for the presidential election to “reverse the curve of unemployment”, the Prime minister believed that “what counts, this is the time, and we will have the opportunity to try them again at the end of the year.”

Mobilized behind its potential candidate-president, Manuel Valls went so far as to speak to the place of François Hollande, to defend its balance sheet. “If I was in the place of the president, I would say the following thing : I am proud as president to have saved Mali, have allowed Greece to remain in the euro zone, the French people has manifested its resistance and resilience (…) after all the attacks, I am proud to have committed France in the way of competitiveness, we have found, particularly in the industrial sector, a cost of the work equal or even better than Germany”, he listed in an anaphora.

“You can’t improvise presidential candidate”

Even if he has never responded directly to the question : “François Hollande is the best candidate for the left ?”, the head of government is laid in the first of the “Dutch”, “first follower” who “rings the engagement” and wants to “wake up the left” : “I hope that in the two months we are in the defence on the balance sheet, the comparison with the right, and launch new projects,” he explained, handing on the front of the stage, the universal income or decentralization. “Every week, I will lead a public meeting, I will come in the media to defend the balance sheet”, he pleaded.

Particularly involved in the campaign is not yet official, François Hollande, Manuel Valls has defended with strength his “loyalty” towards the president, “an essential value”. On the other hand, the Prime minister has warned about the multiplicity of applications in the primary of the PS in January : “We cannot just become a presidential candidate, one does not prepare the next congress of the PS, it is not currently anticipating the defeat in the presidential election to prepare the suite,” he launched against Arnaud Montebourg and Benoît Hamon. “Each one must examine the gravity of the moment : can I win the presidential election, my candidacy doesn’t it further divide ?” The former minister, Emmanuel Macron, has not been spared either, with his “populist light”, and because “it is wrong about what is secularism and more deeply on what is France”.

“The left” should be careful” at the FN

To the voters of the left are tempted to participate in the primary of the right-wing, Manuel Valls reminded of the economic and social program “brutal” of the “Republicans”. He made the distinction between the two favorites, Alain Juppé and Nicolas Sarkozy, saying that they ‘sometimes a problem with this that defends as values” the predecessor of François Hollande. Most importantly, it has made a umpteenth time of the national Front with the “enemy”, exposing “the true face of cynicism and anti-people” party led by Marine Le Pen in Hayange, where the mayor wants to deprive them of a local Secours populaire, which he considers too “pro-migrant”.

“The left” should be careful” not to “forget the essential element”, the extreme right, bothered. According to polls, the second round of the presidential election should play out between the FN and the candidate of the primary right, with the left side almost certain to be eliminated in all configurations. François Hollande, who exceeds very rarely the 15% of voting intentions, must decide on his possible candidacy in December.
