Present on the 20 Heures set, Tuesday December 19, political columnist Nathalie Saint-Cricq explains what can happen, after the agreement reached in the joint committee on the immigration bill.
An agreement was reached in the joint committee on the immigration bill on Tuesday, December 19. Now what can happen? “There are two options”indicates the political editorialist of France Télévisions Nathalie Saint-Cricq, present on the set of 20 Hours. The first option would be for the government to withdraw the text. An option that “is not the most likely”, adds Nathalie Saint-Cricq, explaining in particular that in this case, the Nupes would boast of having won and this would weaken “considerably the government and the president”.
“It’s exploding in the majority camp”
The second option “most likely” is that the text passes to the National Assembly, “thanks to the National Rally and thanks to the Republicans”continues the political columnist. “Marine Le Pen, at that moment, will once again proclaim, as we heard earlier, that this is her ideological victory and that will make the entire majority uncomfortable,” she explains.
“The truth is that it is exploding in the majority camp. We knew that Emmanuel Macron had a relative majority. Now, he no longer has a majority at all, which still poses a real problem. The trap of Marine Le Pen worked rather well, and what is inevitable is some form of reshuffle at the start of the school year.”says Nathalie Saint-Cricq.
