“We will vote for censure on Xavier Bertrand” and on Bernard Cazeneuve, warns the vice-president of the National Rally Sébastien Chenu on franceinfo Tuesday September 3, while their names are mentioned to be appointed to Matignon. “We know their past, we have seen them in action and we oppose them“to their appointment to the post of Prime Minister,” he insists.
Xavier Bertrand “is the first on the list that can be censored”specifies the RN deputy of the North, because it is “the worst of politics” And “the very symbol of what we no longer want to see”. “He is someone who has failed and who is relying on Macron’s government to lead the region even though he says the opposite”he accuses him. For Sébastien Chenu, the head of state “is mistaken in receiving people who have failed”. “When we see that Nicolas Sarkozy, François Hollande, Bernard Cazeneuve and Xavier Bertrand are received, we wonder who will be the next liquidator of the country who will be received”he insists.
“We set our conditions for Emmanuel Macron” on the choice of the future Prime Minister, specifies Sébastien Chenu. The National Rally would not censor “not automatically” a prime minister “more technical and restrained” who would decide “to open the files on proportional representation and purchasing power” and who “would open negotiations to increase the salaries of 10% of French people in exchange for a freeze on employer contributions”. This government “technical” is necessary, according to the vice-president of the RN, because “The government that comes will not be able to initiate major reforms because it will not find a solid majority for these major reforms.”.
