Economy Dominique Strauss-Kahn

"Whoever they fear ..."

D e Christian Jacob Baroin, the UMP is that this weekend gave voice to criticize Dominique Strauss-Kahn in terms at least borderline . Proof, if it takes is one that Nicolas Sarkozy fears most in the race for president in 2012. For my part, I'm not fond of those little words of the game assassins. Do not count on me to add. As my friend Jean-Marie Le Guen I would simply say that " sarkozystes the already designated DSK opponent they fear most! "

Dominique Strauss-Kahn - DR

In fact, what in the light of these criticisms has caught my attention, c is the shift from what the president of the UMP group in the National Assembly with reality. In seeking to divide our citizens into two categories, "rural" cons "urban", Christian Jacob is not content simply to oppose the French them as a caricature, it throws a veil over the most profound changes experienced by France in recent decades. I was this weekend in Saint-Etienne - the derby of course! - But first to work with the presidents of Saint-Etienne Métropole, the CAPI and the Vienne region. Together we share the same vision. That of a metropolis respecting both the imperatives of development of our own cities than to the preservation of farmland around them. The entire front by deliberate policies of transport, by a concerted economic development, function and interaction in full complementarity.

I do not doubt that my colleague Christian Jacob, who carries himself several local mandates knows all the functioning of our territories. And u background, the discrepancy between posture purely politician and the reality we all live, I already felt in the Senate during the debate on local government reform. I then realized that some officials worried the most for the UMP: the number of elected they would get ultimately on the banks of our local assemblies, the rest seemed quite secondary!

Yet behind this reform was playing something crucial to the future of our country: the continuation of the tendency of decentralization, one opened by the left in the early 80s. This reform was a chance ; to help France to grow, modernize, improve its competitiveness on the world stage. UMP officials have let it pass. In this context, it seems more easy for them to lower the debate to confront their opponents in the field of ideas.
