BOYARD. The deputy of rebellious France, Louis Boyard, announced that he was filing a complaint against Cyril Hanouna after a lively exchange between the two personalities during the “TPMP” program on November 10. Animator
[Mis à jour le 14 novembre 2022 à 23h49] Louis Boyard has decided to file a complaint against Cyril Hanouna. The LFI deputy from Val-de-Marne had received many insults from the host during the program TPMP of November 10 broadcast on the C8 channel. Invited to discuss the Ocean Viking boat carrying more than 200 migrants on board, the rebellious deputy took the opportunity to criticize Vincent Bolloré, the man at the head of the Canal group, of which the program is a part. Criticisms that did not pass with the host who insulted him, calling Louis Boyard “shit”, “moron”, “buffoon” and “tocard”.
A case that will not stop there. The deputy who had left the set under the invectives announced, on Twitter, this Monday, November 14, that he wanted to file a complaint against Cyril Hanouna. Louis Boyard announced that he would do so “with a thought for the millions of people who have been insulted (…) each time TPMP has invited the far right and made racist and Islamophobic remarks on their broadcasts.
I will file a complaint against @Cyrilhanouna.

For his part, the flagship host of the Canal group said he regretted the insults because “it’s not a good example”, he admitted. However, the television man said he did not regret the rest, always defending “his friends” as he admitted on Twitter when speaking of Vincent Bolloré. In addition, Cyril Hanouna has decided to file a complaint against Louis Boyard for defamation. Thus, on the air, the host declared: “Know that we too will take action. And we will attack for what he was able to say, defamation, and all the defamation that he had to our regard.”
According to a circular dating from September 2020, the Ministry of Justice asked prosecutors to consider insults against elected officials as “contempt of a person holding public authority or charged with a public service mission”. According to the second paragraph of article 433-5 of the penal code, this type of contempt can be “punished by one year’s imprisonment and a fine of 15,000 euros”.
Thursday November 10, 2022, a violent altercation took place on the set of the program Touche Pas à Mon Poste. Nupes deputy Louis Boyard then took part in a debate on the migrant boat seeking to find a point of arrival, as part of the Quarter of an hour without filter. Very quickly, the tone rose between the elected representative on the left and Cyril Hanouna when Louis Boyard implicitly mentioned the activities of the company Socapalm, of which Vincent Bolloré is the shareholder, which produces palm oil in Cameroon: ” The five richest people are the same ones who impoverish France and Africa. And I will give you the example of Bolloré who deforested Cameroon.” This sentence made the host react: “Do you know that you are in the Canal group here?” However, the latter assures him, in the process: “You have all the rights here, we have never cut anyone, we are live.”
From that moment, there is no more debate. The discussion turns to a settling of accounts, live … Invoking his function as a deputy, Louis Boyard is snatched by the host: “Come down three floors Louis Boyard, you’re a deputy but you were a columnist here so calm down.” The deputy then says: “You’re an irresponsible Cyril.” The tone continues to rise between the two men. Cyril Hanouna notably treated the chosen one as a “moron”, a “fucker” and a “jester”. Louis Boyard ends up leaving the show under the boos of the audience of the show.
Louis Boyard was very quickly caught up in political life. Indeed, the 22-year-old deputy began by joining the former UNL student union at the age of 17, which had the fight for “equal opportunities”. In 2019, it was on Twitter that he made himself known by attacking the former Minister of the Interior, Christophe Castaner, on the sidelines of a demonstration of yellow vests. The trade unionist had accused the police of having “broken” his foot following a shot from LBD (Launcher of defense bullets, editor’s note)”. He had therefore received the support of Jean-Luc Mélenchon .
In September 2022, the young man indicated that he was putting aside his university career to devote himself to his mandate as a deputy, as reported by the media. 20 minutes. Indeed, the bar will pass after the benches of the hemicycle because Louis Boyard is LFI deputy for Val-de-Marne, he who had obtained 51.98% of the votes cast during the second round in June 2022.
Louis Boyard is no stranger to the regulars of the Touche Pas program at my post. Indeed, regular viewers were able to see it on their small screen around the table of Cyril Hanouna. However, the deputy, particularly busy with his commitment to La France insoumise, as the legislative elections approached. Louis Boyard notably marked his participation in the show with a shock announcement from its premiere on the set of TPMP: he would have sold drugs to pay for his studies.
Previously, the young deputy was a columnist on the Grandes Gueules program. He had undertaken to return for the 2021-2022 season, before announcing, a few days before the start of the new season, that he would not be part of it, as Olivier Truchot told RMC: ” We were able to measure that Louis Boyard was not the most loyal man in the world since he had to do last season with us, we had put his name in the press kit, told the journalist on Friday. from the press conference, he had called us to tell us that he was going to Hanouna and that he was leaving us.
