“I have confidence in the Minister of the Interior”replied Michel Barnier, during a trip to Vienne, Thursday October 10, after being questioned by the former Renaissance MP Sacha Houlié. An exchange that France Inter witnessed.

Sacha Houlié, deputy for the 2nd constituency of Vienne, shared his “regrets” for not having voted for the motion of censure on Tuesday October 8 after certain comments by the Minister of the Interior Bruno Retailleau. The elected official from Vienna told the Prime Minister that he was shocked by the comments of the Minister of the Interior, who told the newspaper on Thursday The Parisian that he wishes to tighten the rules for regularizing certain undocumented immigrants, by returning to a circular in force since 2012.

“I find that Mr. Retaillleau’s comments this morning are provocative”castigated the former figure of the left wing of the macronie. “I respect your opinion, it’s good that people tell me what they think”Michel Barnier then replied. “He (Mr. Retailleau) is in a team, everything he does, everything he will do, will be concerted in this team”he added.
