“By playing with the ideas of [Rassemblement] national, we end up giving him the main role“, denounced this Tuesday on France Inter the former President of the Republic François Hollande, while the joint committee meeting Monday on the immigration bill was suspended last night due to disagreements between the presidential majority and the right on the conditions for granting social benefits to foreigners.
The former head of state criticizes the government’s way of acting on this bill. “Perhaps they could request a new deliberation on a text and then refer the debate to the National Assembly on another text.“, he considers.
François Hollande believes that “the text escaped its authors“and judge this situation”surprising“. He notes in fact that “what the government wanted to do is not what it will be forced to concede” to the oppositions. The former socialist president also considers that “what the right wanted to do with this text, sometimes against the government, is not what will translate politically either“.
