the Former secretary-general of the government, Marc Guillaume is caught up by about gender that are assigned by a survey of the “World”.
His ouster had been very commented, and his appointment is just as important. Marc Guillaume, former secretary general of the government and the new prefect of the region of Île-de-France, is caught up by about misogynist and sexist, which are attributed to him. Some political leaders are moved, and of his appointment.
The controversy arose with the publication of an article in the World. In this investigation, the newspaper reveals the existence of a note signed in march 2018, by all the counsellors of the Élysée and filed in the office of Anne de Bayser, the deputy secretary general of the presidency of the Republic. They denounce the sexist behaviour “at the highest summit of the State”. In support of this assertion, a series of reflections sexist be heard in the interdepartmental meetings are listed. No name is mentioned in the note. According to The World, a man is referred to : Marc Guillaume, then all-powerful secretary general of the government.
“misogyny to me is totally foreign”
According to the narrative of the counselors, he would have launched a young mandarin : “You, you’re going to make a career with your sweetheart !”. Another remark attributed to the top official, this stings launched to a co-worker during a ministerial meeting. “It is rare for a woman that thinks… and it is beautiful too, especially when it’s wearing a skirt.” According to The World, the reputation of Marc Guillaume on these subjects is old in the high administration. “I was immediately warned, before going on my first interview with him : he doesn’t love women, he will try to make you devalue”, glide a counselor.

According to The World, the prime minister has been informed of the existence of this note and has notified Marc Guillaume. The remarks moved gradually ceased. The person rejects, him, any slippage. “The misogyny is to me, in my life as in my responsibilities, totally foreign. I, in my role here at SGG, initiated many actions to fight against misogyny and in favour of equality between women and men.” This note would in any case have played a role in the ouster of Marc Guillaume, reports The World.
His appointment as prefect of the Ile-de-France thus gives rise to the controversy in the political class. “If Marc Guillaume has actually been landed to the general secretariat of the Elysée for his behavior is misogynistic, then he may not be prefect of the île-de-France”, has responded on Twitter Julien Bayou, national secretary of EELV.
“This gentleman is my new prefect of the region ! I will not be able to work with him. Fed up with all this tolerance for misogyny dirt”, has completed Marie-Pierre of the Gontrie, senator, socialist Paris, and a member of the law commission.
“Sexism unheard-of”
For his part, the deputy BIA Bastien Lachaud lambasted a “sexism unheard tolerated in the very heart of the Elysée palace”. “If the facts are confirmed, after Darmanin, the appointment of Marc Guillaume as prefect of the Île-de-France would be a political mistake”, he cautions them on Twitter.
Even the majority does not remain mutique on this thorny subject. On Twitter, the mp LREM Guillaume Gouffier noted the severity of the quoted comments. “These remarks and these attitudes misogynist surprise me-they ? Unfortunately not as the fight for the rights of women, the equality, the respect is still long in our country. Are they real ? If yes, they are a real severity to this level of responsibilities.”
