Despite a ban taken by the Haute-Garonne prefecture, the controversial comedian Dieudonné traveled to Montbartier (Tarn-et-Garonne) on August 17 to produce his show. A representation on private land that took the municipality by surprise.
The small town of Montbartier (Tarn-et-Garonne), populated by 1,700 souls, experienced particular unrest on the evening of Thursday August 17. About fifty cars massed around a private lot, because Dieudonné, actor several times convicted of anti-Semitism and racismperformed in front of dozens of people.
Dieudonné was banned from performing in Toulouse (Haute-Garonne) following the ban by mayor Jean-Luc Moudenc. According to local elected officials and Carole Delga’s statement on Twitter, the Tarn-et-Garonne prefecture had also issued an order to this effect.
But Dieudonné did indeed occur in the department. “We found out yesterday at 6:30 p.m. We were absolutely unaware, we were taken by surprise. We didn’t know where it was going to be“reacts Mayor Jean-Claude Raynal by telephone this morning, recalling that the municipality had no power to ban the performance.
Little by little, the gendarmerie made arrangements and stood around the place of the performance to avoid potential troubles. “But a priori, it went well“for the city councilor, not at all favorable to the event.”Dieudonné, I do not carry it in my heart. This is not positive publicity for our village.“
This kind of show deported to the periphery, where the spectators “are invited to take chairs” to follow the show, has become usual for Dieudonné and his team. They circumvent bans taken by prefectures by communicating directly by SMS with those who have reserved a ticket. And once again, it worked.
