Mathilde Panot treated as a “fishmonger” by an RN deputy in the National embly, LFI demands a sanction

” Stop talking ! Fishmonger! “. Mathilde Panot published, on Thursday evening on her Twitter account, a screenshot of the official written report of the debates in the National embly, according to which she was called a “fishmonger” in the hemicycle by the deputy RN of the Aisne Jocelyn Dessigny. “When Le Pen does not write their speeches to them for the microphones, the RN deputies still show their true face,” she commented above the image.

We must “stop with a certain and cl contempt which is unacceptable in our embly”, she argued. “The fascists are rude sexists full of cl contempt, ready to govern with Macron,” he wrote on the social network, Jean-Luc Melenchoncalling them “thugs”.

Jocelyn Dessigny explains that “his words exceeded his thoughts”

The LFI deputy for Seine-Saint-Denis, Raquel Garrido, described this insult of “unacceptable” and recalled that the two elected officials have repeatedly testified to “macho attacks suffered by women politicians”.

The leader of the rebellious deputies asked, during a night session on Thursday, for a sanction against the far-right deputy. After the intervention of the deputy LFI, Jocelyn Dessigny asked to speak in the hemicycle. “If I could offend Mathilde Panot, I apologize, my words have exceeded my thoughts,” he said.

In February 2021, the deputy of the majority Pierre Henriet had been sanctioned for the same insult. The elected representative of Vendée had been deprived for a month of a quarter of his parliamentary allowance – 5,715.43 euros monthly.

“If she feels wrongly insulted, please excuse me”, reacted Pierre Henriet, while denying any and reproaching Mathilde Panot for “vociferating at the podium and cutting off the floor”. “ has no place in our society, even less in the expression of an elected representative of the Republic, even within the hemicycle”, had then underlined the presidency of the embly.
