The weekend will be political with the expectation of a possible ministerial reshuffle or even a change of government.
Will we have a new Prime Minister before the end of the Christmas holidays? Nothing is certain yet, negotiations continue. Elisabeth Borne is reportedly leaving, two men are being considered to replace her. Sébastien Lecornu, the current Minister of Defense, and Julien Denormandie, who has already managed three portfolios during the previous five-year term. The name of Richard Ferrand is also circulating, he could recover the Ministry of Labor. If no announcement has yet been made, it is because the High Authority for Transparency in Public Life is in the process of examining their file and their assets in order to avoid any hiccups.
Complicated recruitment
But perhaps also because recruitment turns out to be more complicated. “A government which is in a complicated situation in the Assembly, facing a certain number of storms, is not necessarily rational for a politician who comes from the left or the right”analyzes Benjamin Morel, political scientist.
