Politics: news for the week of May 29

Soon the senatorial elections will take place, where there are many contenders. “More and more elected officials or members of the government would like to become senators. We can even say that the candidacies are jostling”details journalist Caroline Motte, present on the set of 12/13, Thursday June 1. “It will be September 24: half of the Senate will be renewed for 6 years. No need to go to the polls, it is the electors who vote”she continues.

Territory dispute

For its part, artificial intelligence is beginning to seduce political parties. “Eric Zemmour’s party, Reconquête, is about to publish a video made solely thanks to AI. This is a first for a French party inspired by the Republican party in the United States”, explains Caroline Motte. Finally, an old quarrel over territory resurfaced in the Assembly. Should Loire-Atlantique belong to Brittany or not? “Several deputies have co-signed a bill to allow a consultation to be organised: the inhabitants of the Nantes region could therefore decide on their attachment”concludes Caroline Motte.
