LFI calls for a parliamentary commission of inquiry to “establish responsibilities” for the racist attack in Yvelines

“Today I am re-submitting a parliamentary commission of inquiry” to “establish responsibilities” for the racist attack in Trappes and La Verrière (Yvelines), announced Clémence Guetté, France Insoumise MP for Val-de-Marne and vice-president of the National Assembly, Tuesday October 27 on franceinfo.

She affirms that “this is not the first time that there has been a racist crime” under the mandate of Emmanuel Macron. “We say that there is a responsibility in the release of racist speech which leads to consequences such as this deadly attack,” she continues, after the attack which cost the life of Pengo Bossio Wangi, a 26-year-old man, and left five injured, including a 12-year-old girl.

Since 2008, the "right of drawing" has authorized each president of an opposition group to obtain the creation of a commission of inquiry as of right, without a vote in public session being necessary, but the conference of presidents of the Assembly noted that the groups could not exercise this right during the 2026-2027 ordinary session, anticipating a short session, linked to the presidential campaign.

Clémence Guetté therefore calls on the parliamentary groups and the President of the National Assembly to vote for this commission: “I believe that it interests everyone that we finally treat this subject adequately”. On the responsibility for this racist attack in Trappes, Clémence Guetté mainly points the finger at the parties of Marine Le Pen and Emmanuel Macron. “The whole macronie is racist” and “the extreme right is freewheeling in the town of Trappes”, she judges

Asked about the measures proposed by rebellious France in the event of victory in the 2027 presidential election, Clémence Guetté speaks of "a billion euros" budget to fight against "all forms of discrimination": "We must train professionals, sanction, prevent and educate", she concludes.
