The President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron, considered this Wednesday, November 27, that a “motion of censure can only be approved with the support of RN and PS.” Statements delivered during a midday lunch at the Elysée with deputies from the common base, according to the participants in this event at the Palace.
Already this afternoon, the Government spokesperson, Maud Bregeon, highlighted the “incredible responsibility” of the socialist deputies, urging them to “break their link with rebellious France.”
A motion of censure if Michel Barnier uses 49.3
In an article published in Le Monde on November 21, representatives of the New Popular Front stated that “if Michel Barnier imposes his budget by 49.3, our parliamentary groups will present a motion of censure.” A widely possible option, because the Prime Minister assured in mid-November that he will “probably” use this article of the Constitution.
For her part, the leader of the deputies of the national group Marine Le Pen intends to wait for the joint committee to make its decision before deciding whether or not to support a motion of no confidence. This commission must meet in the days following the solemn vote on the budget in the Senate on December 12. The far-right party is willing to unite its votes with those of the left to overthrow the Government of Michel Barnier, Jean-Philippe Tanguy assured this Wednesday.
