The first secretary of the Socialist Party, Olivier Faure, denounced on Friday the “foolishness” of President Emmanuel Macron, who stated on Wednesday that the Nupes were “hand in hand” with the RN, accusing him of being “a spreader of lies” like Donald Trump.
asked by Release On the statements of the President of the Republic on Wednesday night, who denounced “the cynicism” and “the disorder” of the opposition, accusing the left of having gone “hand in hand with the National Rally”, Olivier Faure judged that It took “a lot of cynicism to affirm such nonsense.”
“I regret that Emmanuel Macron, through meetings with Donald Trump, has become a propagator of ‘alternative truths,’ that is to say lies,” he said.
“There are socialists who have made a specialty of low blows”
Considering “absolutely false” the allegations that the text of the motion of censure was modified so that it could be voted on by the RN, the First Secretary criticized, without naming them, his socialist opponents, some of whom spread that information.
“There are socialists who have made a specialty of low blows. How can they pretend to take the leadership of a party that they discredit with each intervention?” he asked.
Non-signatory of the 3rd motion of censure with LFI
Finally, he confirmed that the PS will not sign the third motion of censure presented this Wednesday by the LFI, in response to the third application of article 49.3 of the Constitution by the Government on the Social Security budget.
“We have a difference with the Insoumis,” he admitted. “The Government is trying to trivialize 49.3 to turn it into an ordinary management tool. At the same time, we do not want to trivialize the motion of censure, which must remain a solemn act”, he explained.
But he wants “the Nupes, all together, to present a table on the bill on finances and on the Social Security bill at the time of the final reading.”
