A warning that does not side with the National Group. Despite the words of Michel Barnier who spoke of “a storm” in the event of the fall of his government this Tuesday, November 26 on TF1, Marine Le Pen’s elected officials persist and sign.
“We will vote on the motion of censure with the New Popular Front (NFP),” said RN deputy Jean-Philippe Tanguy during a press conference this Wednesday morning on BFMTV.
A motion of censure that is getting closer and closer
The Prime Minister runs the risk of falling next week on the Social Security budget after the very probable activation of 49.3, this institutional cartridge that allows a budget to be adopted without a vote. In return, this possibility opens the possibility for the opposition to present a motion of censure.
On paper, he has every chance of being adopted. Adding the votes of the RN and the entire left, he can obtain 320 votes, significantly more than the 289 needed.
If Michel Barnier addressed the RN on the question of proportional representation, entrusted the political scientist Pascal Perrineau with a mission on the subject and mentioned a gesture “to preserve purchasing power”, the tenant of Matignon n did not exactly respond to requests for the registered nurse.
“Red lines”
Marine Le Pen spoke of her “red lines” after an interview with the Prime Minister on Monday about the state budget. Among them, we find the abandonment of the increase in taxes on electricity, the deindexation of pensions to inflation or even the reduction of reimbursement for certain medications.
Although he considers he has not seen Michel Barnier’s “outstretched hand” on Jean-Philippe Tanguy’s budget, he assures that he is “not looking for a measure” in particular but defends “a global balance.”
The budget specialist also took advantage of his press conference to respond to Bruno Retailleau, Minister of the Interior.
“Sometimes you vote on things with your political enemies.”
“I do not believe in the motion of censure. For this, Madame Le Pen would have to agree to mix her votes with those of LFI,” criticized the tenant of Place Beauvau, citing a proposal in support of her declaration of law. of the rebels for the crime of advocating terrorism, strongly criticized by the RN.
“Institutions and democratic reality demand that we sometimes vote with our political enemies. That’s right. What counts is the effect,” assumes Jean-Philippe Tanguy.
According to a survey carried out by Ipsos for La Tribune Dimanche, 53% of French people are in favor of voting a motion of censure in Parliament against the government of Michel Barnier.
