A prime minister in great trouble. Since the beginning of her retirement sequence, Elisabeth Borne’s popularity has largely withered. At the forefront of the reform, Matignon’s tenant pays with all his might for a text largely rejected by public opinion and approved in the National Assembly without the vote of the deputies, with article 49.3.
A new survey, conducted by Odoxa Backbone-consulting to le figaro, confirms the trend. 6 out of 10 French people are in favor (61%) of a major reshuffle of the cabinet that includes the departure of Elisabeth Borne, according to the institute.
Only 22% of the French for a reorganization with a maintenance of the Borne
This election has, in particular, the approval of the supporters of the left-wing parties (86% for LFI, 77% for EE-LV, 59% for PS) and of the National Group (78%). All these formations oppose the government’s bill. On the side of the Les Républicains (LR) party, supporters are divided over the image of disagreements over the right to pensions. 43% are in favor of this scenario.
Beyond a reorganization, what is desired above all is a departure from Elisabeth Borne. Thus, the idea of a new government with the maintenance of this last harvest only has 22% favorable opinions.
The future of the prime minister hangs by a thread. The main interested party is surely aware of this, she who assured that she was willing to serve as a “fuse” in the pension reform in the case of 49.3.
Three weeks of consultations to get your head out of the water
Since the use of Cleaver’s article, Emmanuel Macron has maintained his confidence in him, while entrusting him with a delicate mission: to establish a “government program” and, above all, “to expand the majority”, which is only relative.
Or a “method” based on the commitments already advocated by the sixty-year-old, before failing to do so in the budget texts and particularly in the pension reform.
Result: Elisabeth Borne has already rolled 49.3 eleven times. In addition, the right, which has voted in favor of various government texts since the beginning of the legislature, has already made it known that it rejected an agreement with the majority.
Meanwhile, the head of government is consulting in every way and wants to demonstrate dialogue. She will receive the intersindical next Wednesday. On the political side, the National Rally accepted her invitation, unlike the communists and the rebels who refuse to go to Matignon.
