Valérie Pécresse calls on “political parties to rise to the level of the seriousness of the situation”

“It is absolutely essential that the political parties in Parliament rise to the level of the seriousness of the situation”supports Thursday September 5 on France Inter Valérie Pécresse, president of the Les Républicains in the Île-de-France region, while Emmanuel Macron has still not appointed a new Prime Minister two months after the second round of early legislative elections. Valérie Pécresse suggests to the “left-wing parties and the National Rally” to accept that the next head of government “does not necessarily come from their ranks”She calls on political parties to “to be responsible” in order to “agree on a name”.

The right-wing representative notes that in Parliament “There is a blocking majority” and judges the current political situation “quite terrifying”. “We need to find a Prime Minister who is a figure with a broad enough consensus to implement a policy that will not be consensual because France’s financial situation is extremely complex and delicate.”she analyses. Valérie Pécresse believes that “to make a budget” the next executive will have to “making difficult political decisions.”

The president of Île-de-France also considers that Emmanuel Macron has demonstrated a “analysis error after failed dissolution” of the National Assembly after the European elections. While the head of state continues his consultations and seems to be testing different names on the right and left for Matignon, such as those of Xavier Bertrand and Bernard Cazeneuve.

She accuses the New Popular Front of being “under the intellectual domination of La France Insoumise” and believes that in this he “is not acceptable to the right” and may not be “not for the presidential party either”. Valérie Pécresse assures that the Republicans are open to “the appointment of the left-wing Prime Minister”provided that it “does not call into question the pension reform”. If she recognizes that it is necessary “a policy with a social dimension”the right-wing elected official also wishes “right-wing fundamentals”She thus pleads for a “policy where we reduce unnecessary spending in order to restore purchasing power” and increase wages.
