A government in a week or even ten days? This is the hypothesis that seems to be confirmed. According to several parliamentarians, Sébastien Lecornu wants to wait for the renewal of the Office of the National Assembly, as every parliamentary school year, October 1 and 2 before training its government team.
Because appointing a deputy for their camp in the government also means a deputy who can no longer vote for key positions in the Bourbon Palace. However, surveys promise to be particularly tight in view of the current context.
“There is no deadline, but that is not imminent because the prime minister wants to take time,” justifies the entourage of Sébastien Lecornu with BFMTV.
“He says nothing about the cast”
Especially because Sébastien Lecornu is not more than a few days. At the beginning of the week, the prime minister broke the record of his predecessor Michel Barnier, who had 16 days without government after his appointment for Matignon.
“We are very far from the white smoke … he says nothing about the cast,” abounds in a deputy of the right with BFMTV, who knows the prime minister well.
According to BFMTV information, the government appointment will not intervene until the end of next week. President Macron goes to Denmark on Wednesday, October 1 and will not return to Paris until the next day, before going on Friday, October 3 in Germany and Luxembourg.
According to an Elyseo source, a shooting window arises on the night of October 2, between the two trips of the head of state abroad. Another option: the weekend from October 4 to 5, see right after.
A government member, which could be renewed, is more inclined for this option from October 4 to 5, learned BFMTV. A tight calendar, which must refine in the next few days.
The deadline of October 7
Beyond the date of the Government, their intrigue composition to both the French forces and the policies … and all present their pawns within the central block. Édouard Philippe pushes so that his two ministers of horizons are renewed, and even expects a little better.
“What matters is what we get at the end, we mainly want full and second zone ministers,” BFMTV said the entourage of former prime minister and mayor of Le Havre.
“We want Modem to always be in the Government,” said a member of François Bayrou, former Matignon tenant, who returns this weekend in isle-sur-la-Sorgue.
Around all these unknowns, one day attracts the attention of the Executive: that of October 7, a deadline on which the Government will have to present, to enter the nails of the legislative calendar, its bill related to the 2026 budget.
But, again, surprised because, on paper, Sébastien Lecornu is a full service prime minister, the latter could appear only with his budget before the deputies and then compose his government with the President of the Republic. However, until now, as many episodes of French political life in recent months.
