| 00:01 | | France is screwed. That’s the leitmotiv of this lengthy interview that Brigitte Bardot gave to your journalists. |
| 00:06 | | France is screwed, but it can be reborn, nevertheless. |
| 00:09 | | On the other hand, Brigitte Bardot gave an extremely severe assessment, with quite definitive |
| 00:18 | | judgments of Emmanuel Macron, indeed he is described |
| 00:21 | | as a disconnected president, a president who thinks |
| 00:24 | | much more about Europe than France. She even said he sucked. |
| 00:29 | | She criticizes Pope Francis a lot, who, according to her, |
| 00:32 | | is an idiot, who does not care about… animal causes in particular. |
| 00:36 | | Who doesn’t care about animal causes. She wrote to him; he didn’t answer her. |
| 00:39 | | That’s a point in common with Emmanuel Macron, because she also wrote to Emmanuel Macron. |
| 00:43 | | The Pope and the President of the Republic must know that one responds to Brigitte Bardot. |
| 00:46 | | As she says, she responds to the emails of her admirers, or people who simply write to her. |
| 00:52 | | But also, I think that this interview has an impact, |
| 00:56 | | because she is someone who is obviously old, whose career is behind her. |
| 01:00 | | And we can see what that does, a personality, a faith, freed from political correctness, |
| 01:07 | | the conventional form that one normally uses when speaking. And so there are big words, |
| 01:14 | | there is some extremely direct language. The people she praises, she praises them to the power of 10, |
| 01:18 | | and the people she criticizes, she atomizes them. On Islam in particular, |
| 01:21 | | since she says outright, “Previously I would have said |
| 01:24 | | that I did not want to live in an Islamized France, today I say that I do not want to die |
| 01:28 | | in an Islamized France.” So we know that she has a personal |
| 01:33 | | Battle; it’s halal. Yes, but it’s obviously wider than that. |
| 01:37 | | But it goes further, because she said, no, it’s Islam in general, the Islamist invasion, which |
| 01:41 | | is terrifyingly dangerous for French identity and culture. |
| 01:44 | | In fact, it’s been several years since Brigitte Bardot made an extremely severe assessment |
| 01:48 | | of a France, pardon the expression, that was going to hell in a handbasket, |
| 01:52 | | and she was very critical, indeed, of the propagation of Islam in France. |
| 01:59 | | This is also why, moreover, she had supported — |
| 02:03 | | or in any case complimented — Eric Zemmour |
| 02:07 | | at the time of the last… She continued to do so in this interview. …presidential election. |
| 02:10 | | So for the little anecdote, she says Eric Zemmour has a career as a statesman, even if he is small and puny. |
| 02:15 | | And I spoke with Eric Zemmour following this interview. |
| 02:18 | | He liked the first compliment, he did not really appreciate the comment on his physique, even if |
| 02:23 | | I’m not sure he was too upset, but he raised it in any case. |
| 02:27 | | But what is quite interesting in this interview is that, on the other hand, |
| 02:30 | | she almost calls for uniting the right. |
| 02:33 | | That is to say that she compliments Zemmour, but she also compliments Marine Le Pen. She notes that… |
| 02:37 | | And especially Jordan Bardella… that Jordan Bardella will be extraordinary alongside Marine Le Pen. |
| 02:44 | | And we also talked to her about David Lisnard, by the way, the mayor of Cannes. |
| 02:47 | | And she said, I’m not behind a party, I’m not behind any particular leader, but |
| 02:52 | | what I would like is that all these people that I admire and that I like get along. |
| 02:55 | | However, we know that uniting the right in France today |
| 02:58 | | would take a lot of compromising. But nevertheless, it kind of seems |
| 03:01 | | that that’s what she’s calling for. After that, what is very surprising, honestly, |
| 03:05 | | is her attacks against Emmanuel Macron. It’s not surprising that she criticizes Emmanuel Macron. |
| 03:09 | | But she goes overboard. She really goes all out. |
| 03:13 | | [Unintelligible] goes with him. She never spoke like that about another president |
| 03:17 | | of the Republic. She had disagreements, I imagine, with François Mitterrand, |
| 03:20 | | with Jacques Chirac, with François Hollande, with Nicolas Sarkozy. |
| 03:23 | | But there. He’s awful. Emmanuel Macron, it’s a final judgement. He’s disconnected, he doesn’t think about his people. |
| 03:27 | | He thinks more about Europe than France. The passage on Emmanuel Macron is clearly |
| 03:31 | | the most severe of the interview. His record is bad on everything, |
| 03:36 | | not just on the animal issue. If only Macron had a little empathy, human sense, |
| 03:40 | | respect for the life of his fellow citizens. The French are going through a terrible time. |
| 03:45 | | The pensioners don’t have a penny anymore. He’s disconnected. |
| 03:49 | | He only thinks about Europe. As for France, he doesn’t give a damn about it. He pulls out Article 49.3. |
| 03:52 | | It never goes in favour of the people. Never. She even says the pensioners |
| 03:55 | | don’t have a penny anymore. People don’t have enough to pay their rent. |
| 03:58 | | And on the other hand, the president spends huge amounts of money, I quote her, for immigrants. |
| 04:02 | | So that’s really an obsession. |
| 04:05 | | Listen, clearly, we feel a personality that is very committed to the right. |
