Bénédicte de Perthuis, the judge who sentenced Le Pen for embezzling EU funds and barred her from running in France’s 2027 presidential election, was placed under police protection on Monday night over alleged death threats she received, domestic press reported.
You’re arguing for a democracy without a Justice system?
An independent Justice system is fundamental to a working, healthy democracy.
Just look around to where and how Justice system is weakened by political parties and it’s always developing into autocracy and oppression.
She broke the law and is punished for it. Why is this so hard to understand?
This garbage needs to stop. The “not-elected beurocracy” is comprised of civil servants who often reject better paying positions in the private sector in order to contribute to the society they live in.
This vilification of civil servants is part and parcel of reactionary right wing movements, who can’t stand people in decision making positions not being subservient to their particular partisan reactionary project. A good recent example is the insane opposition to the 15 minute city concept on the right. As if a traffic planner in the municipality trying to create walkable cities is some evil plant of the ‘deep state’ or some other insane garbage.
Those ‘beurocrats’ are the ones making the wheels of your nation’s public sector turn, they are the ones providing public services to people who need them to survive, independent of who’s in power. Vilification of public servants is and always will be the domain of the reactionary impulse. You hating that pig Jean-Marie doesn’t change this fact in the slightest. You should really reconsider this position if you actually hold leftist sentiments.
Someone thats in prison cant be an active politician. They arent sentencing her for her political decisions, but because she is a criminal.
