On the next day of the appointment of Gabriel Attal as Prime Minister, 56% of French people trust him. “It’s an encouraging start, but we know that confidence will be put to the test,” explains Bruno Cautres, political scientist, researcher at CEVIPOF and CNRS, guest of 12/13 info, Wednesday January 10. “For the executive, in France, it has been complicated for several years. The levels of confidence in the Prime Minister or in the President of the Republic are among the lowest”he adds.
A “more exposed” and “more difficult” role
“Gabriel Attal has real credit in the opinion given to him, in particular, for what he did as Minister of National Education, even if it was only for five, six months”, analyzes the political scientist. However Bruno Cauhaut emphasizes that the role of Prime Minister is “much more exposed, much more difficult, with choices to make”. Finally, for the political scientist, this change must be accompanied by other modifications, at the level of ministries.
