Marc Ysaye will be a candidate on the MR lists. It was the president of the MR, Georges-Louis Bouchez, himself who announced that Machiavelli’s drummer and former radio host was joining the liberal ranks.
This announcement did not really arouse enthusiasm within the Walloon Brabant MR. The Walloon Brabançons were not consulted and had the Guibertin imposed on them.
Marc Ysaye therefore does not arrive on conquered territory, in a province where the prominent places on the lists are not numerous enough to satisfy all the reformers hoping to win a deputy seat in the next elections.
“Without being mean, we don’t need him,” one of them tells us to emphasize that the MR is strong enough in Walloon Brabant without a new recruit, even in the media.
According to our information, the chances of seeing Marc Ysaye in one of the seven eligible places – whether at the Region or at the Federal – are almost zero. If this were to be the case, it would be by presidential diktat of Georges-Louis Bouchez.
As a reminder, Valérie De Bue was named head of the list for the Region. Florence Reuter and Mathieu Michel will be in first and second place in the federal elections.
Candidate from outside Walloon Brabant?
One option suggested behind the scenes is to ask Marc Ysaye to be a candidate outside Walloon Brabant. It is in fact possible, in federal elections, to be a candidate in a district without being domiciled there.
It was also announced that Marc Ysaye will be a candidate in the next municipal elections in Mont-Saint-Guibert. Here too, it seems that the news came as a surprise.
