Appointed Monday, May 16, Elisabeth Borne is the first female Prime Minister for 31 years. What do the French think of these choices? Reactions in Calvados, near Livarot, his family stronghold.
Élisabeth Borne was born in Paris, but she has roots in the Pays d’Auge, in Livarot (Calvados). His mother was born here, and his grandfather was mayor of the town, his name was Marcel Lescene. The pharmacy, run by the family of Elisabeth Borne, has also become a charcuterie. 50 km away, at the other end of the department, when you mention the name of Elisabeth Borne, no one seems to know her. However, she is a legislative candidate.
For some, his appointment could weigh in on priority files. But others doubt that she has the time to invest in this territory. “I think she will have other concerns”said a resident. “I can’t see her being Prime Minister and at the same time being a deputy”, according to a local. The Prime Minister came to Vire (Calvados) ten days ago. In this constituency, she will face a young student on the left, and a candidate from the National Rally.
