Christian Vanneste - Deputy of the North

The Courage Of Common sense!

Let us be able to preserve sunday rest!

By Christian Vanneste 15 july 2009 in my political ideas

There are symbolic battles. In the opinion of the pragmatic, they are as the gestures of the same name, vain, useless because free. It are however the most important because they refer to stocks and to sense.

So he is of the job of Sunday. Seemingly, it is a question of legalising a de facto practice in some zones and for some types of commercial activity. In reality, it is about delusive one moved forward economic who conceals badly a social and spiritual detachment.

The opening of shops on Sundays will create no additional wealth. She will not augment a purchasing power which will spread out simply on a day furthermore in aid of specialised, strongly importing supermarkets, and to the detriment of the independent, unable dealers through lack of personnel to assure an uninterrupted activity. It is necessary to remind that these firms use three times more personnel for the same turnover as supermarkets. To these last, the general practitioners show no infatuation besides for this measure.

On social plan, on the other hand, detachment is obvious. The freedom of choice of the wage earners will be a decoy. The family life of the employees of Sunday will be gravely compromised. Their participation in the community life will be also unsettled. The balance by sports or cultural leisures will be for them beyond reach. To an increase of legitimate wage will correspond a loss of jobs in trade unable to open on Sundays, a reduction of the participation in social life except the consumption of mass.

It is the basics there. The deaf complicity of economic liberalism and Marxism dresses numerous faces. That of the r ductionnisme who shrinks the man to the point of being only a producer-consumer. That of the relativism which tends to level all differentiations essential for human life. No! Everything is not the same. It is good that there are separate days, where the daily works are not fulfilled. The difference between the layman and the sacred is certainly identified with religion, but it is as much as as showed it Durkheim this one is inseparable of the social status of the man.

That of the materialism finally for which stocks and institutions which represent them are nothing to the individual and its needs.

The true Liberals, those who draw inspiration from Constant and of Tocqueville know that political liberty is more important than economic freedom, as the end takes it necessarily on means. And yet this freedom exists only if the family, associations preserve their autonomy between the State and the Market because it is in this space that there can be time as mind and as person. Let us be able to preserve this space and this time.

  1. It is strong damage that the "majority" UMP NC never reads the intriguing book of Lovergrove " Days . Because it is the society for which they prepare us.

    D cidemment, economic crisis changed many things But most deputies demands the return to consumerist past!

    To eat to, or live to eat wonders the mean with money. Answer was given this after midday.

    As for political cowardice It has never come as well! Oh well for France The "marker" of Mr Sarkozy is put.

    More than to hear the implementation of the reform so much expected from "Subprimes". Other presidential Idea!

    When France will have died, he will be too much late. But the parliamentarians, the majority at least, have it only teach What astounding by the political way we have! Not better than that delivering France to the Englishmen or to the Nazis But for its good, as everyone knows!

  5. Another big bravo for your audacious positions, lighted by philosophy and not disclaiming religions. Legalise situations as that of Plan of campaign, or make believe that the wage earners will have the choice. difficult to imagine that the majority of the deputies UMP fall innocently in the panel, even the democratic Christians, compared at first to this law

    Go on!

    PS: did your party leave UMP?

  6. Thanks to you to have defended sunday rest! Unfortunately I extremely fear that we soyions more whole in democracy, so much the parties of left as of right deceive Frenchmen and do not respect wishes of the population.
    Neither right nor left can claim of representing our int r r ts, that it is with the destruction of the economic or social cloth with the extra-European immigration of mass (and especially Muslim!) whose Frenchmen in their majority do not want, decisions of the EU, entrance of Turkey, constant propaganda to put into perspective our customs and stocks and to weaken them
    I do not think one minute that the opening on Sundays has an economic purpose. It is more serious still: it is a question of destroying our past and our landmarks.
    Leave this party, mister Vanneste, and save what there remains from our country. Form something with Dupont-Aignan, Of Villiers, or even FN. Because it is to cry, what makes the current political class! To cry or to fight how of fanatical before we ayions very lost!

  8. You are a man audacious Mr Vanneste, but can explain me what you make to UMP, this party which gives support to gay Pride, the sunday job, etc short, which goes more and more contrary to your stocks - that I share, you will have understood him-.
    I ask you this question without animosity no, but I would like your arguments connaitre

  9. Dear M Vanneste,

    Your colleagues suspect only the symbolic range of their calamitous vote.
    If yes, I think, without paranoia, that it is necessary to draw from it from clear conclusions on the power of some powerful (financial and philosophical) lobbies or on the mind of clodhopper which reigns in the assembly.
    If not, it says a lot on the medium level of the deputies of the right ex, worthy representatives of unique non-thought there.
    I admire you for your capacity to keep the head out of the water in it tide of dirty water.
    What are necessary make? I know nothing about it phew.
    It will not help you a lot but go on and hold out. We will be judged on our acts and not on their results.
