“We can’t say ‘the project, nothing but the project’ because that amounts to saying that we won’t do anything,” explains PS MP Céline Hervieu.

“We cannot say ‘the project, nothing but the project’. I cannot agree with that because it amounts to saying that we will do nothing since there is no majority.”explains Céline Hervieu, MP for the 11th constituency of Paris and spokesperson for the PS, on franceinfo on Thursday July 11. Negotiations are continuing on the left to try to appoint a Prime Minister.

“People trusted us with a project,” recalls the MP. A project with “priorities” And “values”However, Céline Hervieu acknowledges that the French have not designated a majority: “We must also take note of this.” She knows it, her party “will have to dialogue” and assures that the socialists are “in an opening position”.

The MP wishes “speak the truth” : “To tell the French that we will implement a program and that we will vote for a budget without a majority is to lie. We will have to work on a dialogue, a consensus, a compromise without compromise but with other political forces”she concluded.
