The new formula for current affairs questions in government was tested by Prime Minister Gabriel Attal on Wednesday April 3 at the National Assembly. Three experts analyze his answers on the 19/20 info set.
The Prime Minister alone on stage. Facing the deputies, Gabriel Attal answered questions in the National Assembly on Wednesday April 3. According to Bruno Cautres, CNRS researcher at the Center for Political Science Research, this is the first time that a government has undertaken such an exercise. “It was interesting because the format was relatively short (…) it makes the exercise quite lively“, he observes.
Gabriel Attal must build his “political stature”
According to Franck Tapiro, communications expert, Gabriel Attal put himself in a position to “alone in the face of opposition”. “It reinforces the dramaturgy of this moment, which has been a little trivialized for several years, it gives it a little essence”, notes the expert. The Prime Minister “tries to find the stature of majority leader, he is parachuted by the president”, rather notes Philippe Moreau-Chevrolet, professor at Sciences Po and president of MCBG Conseil. By definition, Gabriel Attal would not have “political in scope”because he still has to “build it”, he continues.
