Legislative in Haute-Garonne: the LR mayor of Toulouse, Jean-Luc Moudenc, calls on his political family “not to oppose blindly”
The LR mayor of Toulouse, Jean-Luc Moudenc, reacted on Monday to the results of the legislative elections in Haute-Garonne and in the metropolis. He calls on his political family “to be constructive” and “not to oppose systematically”.
The mayor of Toulouse, Jean-Luc Moudenc reacted this Monday to the results of the legislative elections, in particular on the Toulouse metropolis which saw the victory of Hadrien Clouet (Nupes, 1st), Anne Stambach-Terrenoir (Nupes, 2nd), Corinne Vignon (Together, 3rd), François Piquemal (Nupes, 4th), Jean-François Porarrieu (Together, 5th), Monique Iborra (Together, 6th), Christine Arrighi (Nupes, 9th) and Fominique Faure (Together, 10th).
“I address my Republican congratulations to the newly elected parliamentarians, in particular those who sit on the municipal and metropolitan councils of Toulouse: my friends Dominique Faure and Jean-François Portarrieu, as well as our colleague François Piquemal” begins the mayor of Toulouse. .
“The record abstention and the political fragmentation of the country into three radically opposed parliamentary blocs – in the faithful image of the French people – must question the national elected representatives, considered as the president of the metropolis. This is the fruit of 5 years of opposition sterile minorities and a lack of listening from a majority that is not very open to constructive proposals. This situation will make it difficult to govern the country. In the face of global threats, we need to act intelligently by playing together. Alas, we risk the paralysis of national institutions”.

He calls on LR “not to oppose blindly”
Jean-Luc Moudenc says “that minority groups and the presidential majority work together in search of convergences of general interest for the common good, as so many other European democracies have been doing for a long time”. He calls on his political family – Les Républicains – “not to oppose blindly but to propose constructive amendments to the texts of the presidential majority, and the latter to accept them with more humility”.
Before concluding on the virtues of consensus, a culture “pegged to the body” of local elected officials: “We do not choose our decisions according to a political compass, but seek the best for the inhabitants, wherever they come from, respecting us our political differences. And it works! It is thanks to this state of mind that we can advance local issues more effectively than successive governments for national reforms. An example from which we would do well to draw inspiration national elected officials.
