Elisabeth Borne received by Emmanuel Macron at the Elysée to discuss “important issues”

While the prospect of a reshuffle has agitated the macronie since the crisis opened by the immigration bill in mid-December, the announcement of a possible game of musical chairs in the government is long overdue. Emmanuel Macron received Elisabeth Borne at the Elysée, early in the evening, Sunday January 7, France Télévisions and Franceinfo learned from the president’s entourage and Matignon. Objective: to evoke “important files”like the floods in Pas-de-Calais and the cold episode which will affect the country this week.

A little earlier today, the president asked the head of government and to the Minister of Ecological Transition, Christophe Béchu, of “find quick answers to the disaster situation” in Pas-de-Calais. New measures should be announced on Monday by the Minister of Housing, Patrice Vergriete.

While the government is suspended from presidential decisions in the coming days regarding the architecture of a new team, itSunday one-on-one at the Elysée and these files to be managed urgently mean that the Prime Minister is kept in her post for the moment? Elisabeth Borne has held her position for twenty months at Matignon. “Everyone gave Borne no more than three weeks, no one predicted this longevity with this ability to hold out. She is impressive”a minister told franceinfo at the end of December. But there are also numerous voices pleading, in the majority, for a new captain at Matignon.
