Delivery driver, sailor, boxer… These deputies with trades that we are not used to seeing in the Assembly – franceinfo

Beyond Rachel Keke, the housekeeper elected in the 7th constituency of Val-de-Marne, facing the former Minister of Sports Roxana Maracineanu, other new deputies exercise professions that we have not not used to meeting at the Palais-Bourbon. Because from the point of view of the socio-professional categories represented among the elected representatives, it is the executives of the public service (75 deputies), ahead of the administrative and commercial executives of companies (66) and the liberal professions (58), who remain most represented. >> Legislative 2022: which Assembly after the second round? Follow our live Rachel Keke will be one of the new Nupes deputies who will count, she who said she was ready to “shake the Assembly”. And she is not the only one to have worked in the cleaning sector. Lisette Pollet, 54, elected in the 2nd district of Drôme, was an employee of Elior (where she was CFDT staff delegate) then of Sodexo, where she held the position of team leader. Elected regional councilor, she had devoted herself to politics since November 2021. She joins the deputies of the future National Rally group. Sébastien Delogu is the new Nupes deputy for the 7th constituency of Bouches-du-Rhône. He was a taxi driver for nine years and joined his profession’s strike against Uber in 2016. He joined La France insoumise in 2017 and defends himself from the label of “Jean-Luc’s official driver Mélenchon”: “I am not a driver, I am an activist above all”, he confides. Jorys Bovet is a good driver. Delivery driver, more precisely. At 29, this political novice committed to the RN was elected deputy for the 2nd constituency of Allier. Another unexpected profile: that of Antoine Villedieu. At 33, the new RN deputy for the 1st district of Haute-Saône already has a professional career behind him: in English boxing and especially in MMA, where “Nino” is a double WFC world champion. Having become a police officer in Besançon, he has been a departmental delegate of the RN since May 2020. The new deputy for the 5th district of Isère does not wear the same colors and was elected for Nupes: Jérémie Iordanoff, 39, is an artist abstract painter. He has also been deputy national secretary of Europe Ecologie Les Verts since 2019. In the 3rd district of Haut-Rhin, he is a firefighter, who enters the Assembly. Didier Lemaire, 46, won under the Horizons banner of former Prime Minister Edouard Philippe. He is one of the vice-presidents of the community of communes of Sundgau. On the benches of the presidential majority, we will find a producer of organic apples, Éric Martineau, 54, elected under the label Ensemble-MoDem in the 3rd district of Sarthe. A little further west, in Ille-et-Vilaine, Mathilde Hignet, 29, is an agricultural worker on an organic farm after working in an nursing home. She was elected Nupes MP for the 4th constituency. Pierrick Berteloot, 23, is a sailor for a company that provides cross-Channel connections. He was also an RN municipal councilor in Bourbourg, near Dunkirk, and regional councilor for Hauts-de-France. He is now a member of the 15th district of the North. In the Eure, it is a maintenance agent, Katiana Levavasseur, 52, who won in the 2nd district. She assures that she will defend “the use of small hands in France, who like me get up early in the morning”. She is an RN municipal councilor for Neubourg. The new deputy for the 5th district of Hérault, Stéphanie Galzy, 41, works at the Banque Postale, where she has been on contract for a few months. She, who continued to work during the campaign, planned to resign to exercise her mandate.
