Strafregister der französischen Politiker, sortiert nach Jahr, politischer Partei und Straftat

**Source:** https://casier-politique.fr/

**How to read it**: Far-left MPs are positioned at the very left of the hemicycle, it goes gradually to the traditional left, then centrists, traditional right and finally far-right wingers to the very right.

**The bubbles** “1 an, 3 ans, 5 ans” represent the lengths of sentences (1, 3, 5 years).

**Colours**, from the left to the right:

– Purple (LFI): “Radical” left
– Red (PC): French Communist Party
– Pink (PS): Traditional center-left (Socialists)
– Green (EELV): Main environmentalist party
– Light blue (RE): Macron’s centrist party
– Orange (UDF): Traditional centrist parties
– Dark blue (LR): Traditional conservatives
– Brown (RN): Far-right nationalist party (Le Pen)
– Black (R!): Reconquête!, hardline far-right

Someone make a map of Italian politicians, we win hands down in this kind of competition

Dear OP. What kind of chart is this and how do you read it?

The bubble sizes appear to be length of sentence? Is this so? So, severity of crime I guess?

The dates seem to radiate out from the center, except that the left side (the 9 O’clock position) radiates backward from 1980 and the right side (the 3 O’clock position) radiates forward from 1990. So what about the 12 O’clock position.

The color coding is by party.

Gaston get the Guilliottine, the big One..

Explanation:

The author used LLM to filter and sum up wikipedia, to get a list of judgements against french politicians.

It is placed on a left-right political spectrum like in our parlement, but all dates are mixed up. The blue and pink used to be very big parties in the past but not anymore. Orange disapeared completly. Purple, light-blue and black are new parties existing since only about 10 years or less. Macron’s party is light-blue.

The size of the buble is how big the sentence was. If a person is sentenced multiples times in multiple cases, it creates multiple bubbles.

Imperfections: some data was missing, which is expected because this is just an AI collecting data from wikipedia. This is mixing up all kinds of politicians, elected in all kinds of positions. the author seems to add new bubbles with time, probably because people are giving him new information now that his site is becoming popular. The author is known to be left leaning.

Right wing guys on the right of the picture, leftists on the left. As you sadly can see, you can be a politician in France while being a criminal.

Wait how are you able to run for office if you have a criminal record? Is that allowed in France? That’s surprising, unless many countries don’t have those barriers in place?

funny: my company won’t let me in the website

Absolutely horrible chat. Good data though

„We put all our politicians in prison as soon as they’re elected. Don’t you?“

„Why?“

„It saves time.“

– from The Last Continent, Sir Terry Pratchett

I don’t believe this graph for a second, sorry. Just this week a far left (LFI) MP was condemned for diffamation. I can guarantee you there must be some heavy massaging of the data and you can easily guess who did it.

Edit: conveniently OP is not letting anyone see their post status, you know exactly why.

La méthodologie est catastrophique et favorise à 100% les partis les plus jeunes. Je m’explique :

Si je prends (sur le site) en filtrant les années 2020 à 2027 et sur le RN, toutes les affaires de JMLP apparaissent alors que ça faisait longtemps qu’il n’était plus député. en gros plus un parti a une longue histoire et plus il a eu de députés dans le temps plus il va apparaître fortement parce qu’ils comptent tous les anciens députés, donc un parti comme LR qui n’a q’une centaine de députés actuellement, en a eu plusieurs milliers dans le passé et donc à chaque fois qu’un ancien député est condamné il apparaît. à l’inverse, un parti comme LFI est très récent et donc a eu moins de parlementaires avec des carrières moins longue, donc mathématiquement ils sont moins représentés.

Hahahahaha well done!

Ah, the chart that show something useless

Is there a filter to only show politicians who currently have an function in public office? In other words, people who get their salary from the French public budget. Such a filter would be very useful.

Beyond the fact that the graphic representation is simply atrocious, the methodology is equally appalling. The Republicans (LR) and the Socialist Party (PS) were large, long-established parties. They are now relatively minor, but they held a considerable number of seats and remain significant political forces at the local level. If, as the title suggests, this refers to politicians in general, regardless of their position, then this map is essentially meaningless: the older a party is and the more elected officials it has, the more likely it is to have had a significant number of convictions. Furthermore, this graph is actually inaccurate; the R! cannot have convictions before 2010 for the simple reason that they only existed in 2021. And what are these bubbles in the center? I suppose they represent independents, but we have no information on the dates or the people involved. And how far does the center extend? For example, in such a representation, if something dates back to, say, the 1970s and concerns a left-wing politician, where will that person be located? On the right? Also in the center, without distinction? On the French Communist Party (PCF) side, in 2023, a member of parliament, Nicolas Sansu, was sentenced to prison. I don’t see anything beyond what appears to be 2015. Martial Passi, a PCF mayor, was also convicted in 2019, as was Jean-Paul Trovero, another communist mayor convicted in 2019. Furthermore, this graph is quite illegible; I struggle to see what is before or after 2020 in the center. Moreover, this site is somewhat of a scam.
