New Prime Minister: Emmanuel Macron rejects an NFP government
(France 2)
In search of a Prime Minister, on Monday August 26, Emmanuel Macron decided to continue his consultations without the National Rally or France Insoumise.
The legislative elections seem far away. Villeneuvette (Hérault) had placed the NFP in majesty with 100% of the votes. Now, the voters are disillusioned. They were expecting an NFP Prime Minister, a hypothesis dismissed by Emmanuel Macron on Monday, August 26. Rejected as a potential Prime Minister, Lucie Castets denounces a “denial of democracy“. “We are faced with a President of the Republic who wants to be President, Prime Minister and party leader at the same time. Institutions cannot function like that.” she laments.
Faced with this blockage at all levels, France Insoumise is calling for a first demonstration on September 7. Invited to the Elysée, the socialists, the ecologists and the communists refuse to participate in new discussions, maintaining the unity of the New Popular Front.We will censor any extension of Macronism“, declared Olivier Faure, leader of the PS. The consultations at the Elysée will therefore continue.
