Louis Boyard harshly criticized Emmanuel Macron's speech, which he described as a lack of respect towards young people. He believed that the youth could not accept mobilizing for three weeks to receive, in his opinion, eight minutes without a concrete response. The deputy called on the president to end his strategy of delay and repression, and to respond quickly to the demands of the youth.
