Macrons vs Owens

Device and fortune: The summer months of the United Kingdom news is often known as “silly season” – where nothing happens and stories become more ridiculous while journalists seek to fill in column thumbs. There is a touch of the strangest beef of this summer, although with a much darker shade: Alt-Right Motormouth Candace Owens against French President Emmanuel Macron and his wife Brigitte. Owens said on several occasions – and without proof – Brigette Macron is a man, and this week, the French political couple had enough. They filed a defamation complaint against Owens, the first time as a foreign politician continued an American journalist, for his legal team to describe “eccentric and eccentric and eccentric fictions”. At the heart of his attacks, according to them, the desire to “promote his independent platform, to earn notoriety and to earn money”.
