After the state budget, the Social Security budget. As a result of a first use on Wednesday, Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne decided to use article 49.3 of the Constitution again this Thursday night, compromising the responsibility of her government. As the day before, the Nupes immediately announced that they would present a motion of censure. The multiparty coalition will be isolated this time: the National Association has indicated that it will not formulate a second motion of censure.
“Duplicating would be ridiculous”
However, this Thursday, the National Group had imitated the left-wing opposition by recording its own text aimed at counteracting what the majority opponents describe as a “forced step.” But he doesn’t plan to use the same process for the Social Security funding bill. “Duplicating would be ridiculous,” the parliamentary group told us. As a sliding entry in Nupes.
The motions of censure presented by the Nupes and the RN against 49.3 initiated in the framework of the debate on the first part of the State budget will be examined on Monday from 4:00 p.m.
Jean-Philippe Tanguy, RN deputy elected on the Somme, also justified for his part the impasse made this Thursday by his party for this agenda: “The calendar means that we would discuss it at the same time on Monday. So, there is no point of make a tunnel of motions. There is a motion of censure presented, we will say what we think of the Borne government. A motion is enough.
Both moves should fail. RN deputies will not vote for the one from Nupes, nor will representatives of the left vote for the text prepared by the extreme right. The Republicans, for their part, consecutively dismissed the two main -and antagonistic- opposition forces, declaring, through their leader Olivier Marleix, that they would not vote for either of the two motions.
