Lucie Castets evokes a “clarification”The woman who was appointed by the New Popular Front to be Prime Minister wrote on Wednesday, September 4, about having worked voluntarily for the left-wing coalition.
She responds, without mentioning it, to an article in the magazine Marianne which mentions a quote established at 51,000 euros per month for his entire team, an amount to which 9,000 euros should be added for him. “A budget estimate was proposed in July by the NFP, it was never implemented. The hundreds of hours of preparation, meetings and travel were carried out on a voluntary basis”added Lucie Castets in another message.
“His commitment, like that of those around him, was entirely voluntary throughout the summer.”confirmed Olivier Faure, the number one of the PS on X, denouncing “a world of misinformation where disqualification is used as an argument”.
