Tuesday, July 12, a law relating to the Covid did not collect enough votes to be promulgated. It is a first snub for the government, which must be satisfied with a relative majority in the National Assembly.

“The situation is serious.” These are the words of Elisabeth Borne after seeing a text of law refused by the National Assembly. All the opposition parties have come together to vote against the return of control of the health pass at the borders. This vote gave rise to an astonishing scene since La France Insoumise and the National Rally applauded this setback for the government. “There was a consensus against the government text”welcomes in particular Sébastien Chenu, RN deputy for the North.

Like Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne, the government denounced the situation.I heard Madame Le Pen for two years declare that the borders had to be closed as soon as there was a new variant and her own deputies decided to prevent the government from putting in place protective measures at the borders “critic Olivier Véran, the spokesperson of the government. This situation could recur during the five-year term, even if the contribution of the Republicans to certain texts could be decisive.
