Emmanuel Macron will receive all the parliamentarians of the majority Tuesday evening at 7:30 p.m., announces the Elysée to franceinfo. In the morning, at 9 a.m., the Head of State will first receive the Prime Minister, in the company of the leaders of the majority groups in the Assembly, as well as important ministers such as Bruno Le Maire, Gabriel Attal, Olivier Dussopt, Olivier Véran and the President of the National Assembly Yaël Braun-Pivet.
A lunch with the main ministers
“Despite all the efforts made by the oppositions, there is no alternative majority”, reacted the entourage of the Prime Minister to franceinfo on Monday evening. Elisabeth Borne therefore narrowly avoided censorship.
The Prime Minister will also be on Tuesday morning before the parliamentarians of the majority, meeting in an intergroup at the National Assembly, before having lunch with the main ministers of the government. Finally, the joint majority executive board, made up of Renaissance, Horizons and Modem, will meet on Tuesday afternoon.
