The MR President and the Ecolo co-president debated for SudInfo's readers. Georges-Louis Bouchez, who champions a programme based on progress, science, merit and work, went head to head with Jean-Marc Nollet, for whom welfare dependency, dogma and electoral calculation take priority.
Five themes had been pre-defined for the organisation of this debate, each putting forward his own priorities. The liberal and the environmentalist spent more than an hour discussing issues linked to energy and investment in the energy and climate transition, but also governance and money in politics, employment and gender equality, healthcare and, finally, security.
