Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] On January 7, two barges collided off the coast of Mayotte in France, one of which was carrying the head of the parliamentary faction of the National Rally party, Marine Le Pen. This was reported by the BFMTV television channel.

The ships collided while moving towards each other. The barge with Le Pen was sailing from the main island of Mayotte, Grand Terre, to the island of Pamandzi.

Most of the passengers fell to the deck. At least three people were slightly injured. Le Pen was not injured because she managed to stay in place during the collision. The politician was evacuated by the coast guard.

The accident paralyzed barge traffic for more than an hour, the TV channel reported.

Le Pen arrived in Mayotte on January 5 to meet with residents affected by tropical cyclone Shido.

As reported by Regnum News Agency, Shido hit Mayotte in mid-December. According to meteorologists, it was the strongest cyclone in the last 90 years. The storm was accompanied by heavy rains and gusts of wind up to 250 km/h.

As a result, more than 15,000 households were left without power. In Mayotte, infrastructure was seriously damaged, and the department's airport was heavily damaged.

French President Emmanuel Macron visited Mayotte. Local residents booed him and began chanting calls for him to resign. They accused the head of the republic of not reacting properly to the incident. In response, Macron was rude to the people.

There a lot of that going around. This morning I listened to a song released by the lead singer that pointed out that Justin Trudeau never played hockey.
