The daily life of the Italian right The paper looks back on the troubles in which the mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, became the Socialist Party candidate for the 2022 presidential election.
“The formula was a good laugh. Among the members of the old guard of the Socialist Party (PS), on the other hand, it was a feeling of unease that spread when, on the website of Sunday newspaper, they read the first slogan of Anne Hidalgo’s election campaign : ‘Bringing France together’.” And The paper to put the elephants in the mouths of the PS the following question : “But, if it does not even manage to unite the left, how does it intend to go regarding reuniting France? ?”
According to the conservative Italian daily, the record of the mayor of Paris, who arrived at the head of the capital in 2014 and confirmed in 2020, does not allow much support. “During his two terms of office, Paris’ debt increased by 72%, from just over 4 billion to 7.1 billion euros. ”
The situation is so serious that several associations (the Fédération Union parisienne pour la safeguard de Paris, the Comité Marais Paris, Rouler libre and Sauvons notre Paris) have seized the prefect of Paris and the regional chamber of accounts (CRC) to denounce the mayor and demand that the city be placed under the supervision of the State.”
Right-wing opposition leader Rachida Dati had therefore not lied when she said in November that Paris was in “bankruptcy”, Advances the title.
Leap into the void
To complete this gloomy picture, The paper lingers on “The political disaster of this candidate for the Elysee who risks going down in history as the undertaker of the PS”. If the candidate does not pass the 5% mark, she can say goodbye to the reimbursement of her campaign. What the current state of the party’s finances clearly does not allow. On December 12, the mayor of Paris organized her first meeting in Perpignan to raise part of the funds for her campaign. “Results ? At the end of the day, the donations did not exceed the miserable sum of 60 euros [selon une information du Canard Enchaîné, NDLR].” Even Crédit coopératif, affiliated with PS, refuses to financially support an application that will not necessarily reach 8%.
A situation deemed so pathetic by The paper that the newspaper comes to consider that the race to the Élysée of the mayor of Paris looks like “more and more like a leap into the void ”.
