00:00A short while ago as well, a reporter who's been at the National Assembly for us, Clovis Casali,
00:05spoke to Laurent Jacobelli, spokesman for the far-right National Rally.
00:10So I'm here with Laurent Jacobelli, a newly elected MP for the Moselle area. Laurent Jacobelli,
00:17you're part of the National Rally, you have a lot of MPs, 126, but it's not the absolute majority
00:24you wish for. Of course you're right, but we are keen to say that we are the most important
00:29group in the National Parliament, that we have gathered 10 million French citizens, which is
00:36amazing, and it's the first time in French history. So as you said, we don't have the majority,
00:42nobody has, in fact, and what we fear is that France is now going into a big chaos,
00:47political chaos, without no majority, without no government. At the very moment, we need a
00:53strong government to take measures about immigration, security, level of life, and I fear
01:00that French that have voted for us will now have a left-wing government which will be
01:09catastrophic. You think the next prime minister will be from the left-wing? You think that will
01:13be the bloc governing France? I fear it because the majority Macron government has told the French
01:21citizens to vote for the left in order to block us from our government. So it is playing with fire
01:29and we fear that now the chaos organised by Emmanuel Macron will freeze France, that no measures will
01:38be taken, no important laws, and we need action, we need reforms, and it is the bad news of this
01:44secrecy.
