Olivier Faure calls for not giving “full powers to Marshal Bardella”

The day after the first round of the legislative elections, Olivier Faure hopes “that the mobilization will be even broader” in the second round to avoid giving “full powers to Marshal Bardella”. It’s not “not an irrepressible wave”, he says.

Assimilating the aspiring Prime Minister to Marshal Pétain is a “excessive talk” and “insignificant”, retorts Jean-Philippe Tanguy. According to this member of the national office of the National Rally (RN), “There is not a single French person in our country who believes that Mr. Bardella is an authoritarian figure who does not respect democracy.”.

Unemployment insurance: the RN “happy” after the suspension of the reform

Following the announcement of the results of the first round of the legislative elections, a decision by the Prime Minister brought the Socialist Party (PS) and the National Rally (RN) into agreement: the suspension of the implementation of the unemployment insurance reform. “I am very happy about it, it is a victory for the French people”reacts Jean-Philippe Tanguy. Olivier Faure says to himself “sensitive to the fact that [Gabriel Attal] heard that the French were violently opposed to this reform” .

The consensus ends there. The head of government had “conceived” this reform “because at the time he thought he would seduce Mr. Tanguy’s electorate”attacks Olivier Faure, re-elected deputy of the 11th constituency of Seine-et-Marne on Sunday evening.
