Catherine Couturier takes her first steps as a NUPES/LFI deputy for Creuse

Everything is accelerating for Catherine Couturier. The 63-year-old former trade unionist, elected Sunday, June 19, deputy of Creuse under the colors of the NUPES, was in Paris, this Tuesday, June 21, to discover the Palais-Bourbon, where she will sit for the next five years. She was able to retrieve her deputy’s briefcase, containing the National Assembly’s internal regulations as well as her tricolor deputy’s scarf.

Catherine Couturier will sit within the group La France Insoumise (LFI), before a possible joint group NUPES (proposed by LFI, but refused by the socialists, the communists and the ecologists). For the time being, the deputies are (re)discovering the National Assembly, and discussing with their colleagues with a view to the constitution of political groups: they have until June 28, 6 p.m., to send in the constitution of their group. June 28 will also be the first meeting of the 16th legislature, with the election of the President of the National Assembly.
