In a 2013 open letter addressed to Charb and Fabrice Nicolino, he declared : 'you've made [France] a nastier place to live in. A country which now forbids a woman to work in a crèche on the basis that the piece of cloth she wears will traumatise the kids. [3] Or a tertiary student, wearing a bandanna judged to be too wide, is excluded from her college with the blessings of a UMP mayor, the socialist Minister of Education, and the rabid press'.
He established a monthly journal CQFD, [4] (Ce qu'il faut dire, détruire, developer), from 2003. [5]
In 2013 he began to collaborate on the monthly Article 11 for which he writes critical pieces on celebrities in media and personalities of the political left. These have included Charb, and Daniel Mermet . [6]
