Who to replace Jean Castex? It will not be the socialist deputy Valérie Rabault. The latter said, Tuesday, May 3 to BFMTV, to have refused the post. “They will retire at 65, it is contrary to my convictions”, explained the president of the socialist group in the National Assembly, at HuffPost. “I am elected from a rural constituency, when I see the small pensions of farmers, I cannot defend such a text.”

Emmanuel Macron announced, on April 27 in a market in Cergy (Val-d’Oise), that the Prime Minister he would appoint would be “someone who is attached to the social question, to the environmental question and to the productive question”. “I believe in going beyond, political color does not say everything”he also underlined during this first trip since his re-election, in response to a question from a journalist on the possibility of seeing a left-wing personality named.

Speculation is rife about the identity of the future or future tenant of Matignon. Emmanuel Macron intends to replace Jean Castex while renewing his government very largely, less than seven weeks from the first round of the legislative elections of June 12 and 19.
