Jordan Bardella, leader of France’s far-right National Rally party, was hit on the head with an egg Saturday, just days after another incident in which a protester threw flour at him.

Bardella was at an event in Moissac, southwest France, to promote his latest book when a man broke the egg on his head.

The suspected attacker, a 74-year-old man, was arrested and taken into custody for violence against a public official, prosecutor Montauban Bruno Sauvage told AFP.

Flour, egg. It’s time for a pie

It’s France so it’s definitely cake

[-] defaultusername@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Last time someone in France let people eat cake, it didn't go too well for them.

[-] Everyday3671@lemmy.world 20 points 1 week ago

No, they are still missing the butter and sugar.

[-] halcyoncmdr@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Give it time. Its a slow recipe, but I trust the French to follow through if its a protest.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 1 week ago

dont forget the salt.

[-] fonix232@fedia.io 9 points 1 week ago

No, the next step is panko/breadcrumbs.

And after three strikes, you dunk him in hot oil.

To be fair I never imagined that "eat the rich" (or in this case, eat the Reich) would turn out Kentucky Fried, but I'm all for it.

If he was Italian, pasta

[-] LoonyLenny@lemdro.id 2 points 1 week ago

You get pie in the sky when you die.

[-] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 63 points 1 week ago

Next is milk, then sugar, then you beat him thoroughly and put him in the oven.

America: throw a whole sandwich at a cop

France: throw every ingredient to make every part of a sandwich from scratch

[-] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago

I really hope they make a Croque Monsieur with this pig.

Someone get him with some butter and sugar and see if he turns into a racist cake

[-] NoForwardslashS@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 week ago

Nope! Sorry. Still just a wet sack of shit.

[-] mavu@discuss.tchncs.de 15 points 1 week ago

Milk and sugar next week.

Free Crepes.

[-] adespoton@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 week ago

It’s well pasta time….

[-] fullsquare@awful.systems 11 points 1 week ago

they're trying to get him breaded lol

[-] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

The 74 year-old is a hero and remembers what his parents said about the fucking Nazis and Vichy French.

[-] Harvey656@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

74 year old badass.

[-] mp3@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 week ago

Complete the brunch with bacon and sausages.

[-] SaharaMaleikuhm@feddit.org 8 points 1 week ago

Bricks are usually more effective.

[-] sukhmel@programming.dev 7 points 1 week ago

I can't understand if I should praise aiming skills or if the egg was cracked up close and personal. Tried to check in the article and saw what Bardella made of it:

The more we make progress, the closer we get to power, the more the violence from the far left, intolerance and pure stupidity are unleashed

For fuck's sake, he just barely survived an assassination no less

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 7 points 1 week ago

milk, sugar, butter, and then chocolate chips or chunks. icing, whip cream, fruit chunks.

[-] SethTaylor@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago

I'm sorry but this is fucking hilarious

I'm desperate to know what will be next. Jam? Chocolate spread? Cream?

[-] maplesaga@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I hope every political argument devolves into food being thrown eventually.

Just going down the ingredients list until they toss him in an oven to bake until golden brown.

Guess the next step is to deep fry him.

[-] slickgoat@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

They're French, they're making a soufflé

Operation dessert storm

[-] ininewcrow@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

If they keep talking with all their hot air and raise the temp to about 175C ... they could bake themselves into a cake

[-] INHALE_VEGETABLES@aussie.zone 5 points 1 week ago

Any Aussies out there remember egg boy?

What a legend.

[-] ryannathans@aussie.zone 4 points 1 week ago

Also thinking about Bush and the Iraqi shoe

[-] gustofwind@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I’ve heard rumors that bricks work better than eggs

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 4 points 1 week ago

what about an OSTRICH egg, they do weigh 5lbs each.

[-] Tja@programming.dev 3 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Bricks create martyrs and increase the vote share of the party. Ridicule doesn't particularly help, but doesn't hurt either.

Get some sugar in the mix, and boy... you got yourself a cake going.

I've heard of slow cooking, but this is next level stuff.

[-] Draedron@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

So just milk and sugar missing and he turns into a cake?
