POLITICS – The sentence could hardly have gone unnoticed. This Wednesday, September 11, before the Council of State, Emmanuel Macron gave a speech that did not escape the ears of the New Popular Front. And for good reason, during his speech, the head of state mentioned the need to act according to the choice of voters.

“The people, sovereign today, express themselves through suffrage, which must always be taken into account because it is the primary fact in any democracy.”he stressed during this back-to-school ceremony, provoking, unsurprisingly, the ire of the New Popular Front. Which sees this statement as a provocation, after the appointment of a Prime Minister, Michel Barnier, from a force defeated in the European and legislative elections and, moreover, not having participated in the ” republican front ” to block RN’s path.
“Making fun of the world”
“Besides, if he votes left, I will appoint a right-wing Prime Minister in order to take this into account in the best possible way,” the national coordinator of France Insoumise, Manuel Bompard, joked about X, while the communist senator Ian Brossat accused Emmanuel Macron of ” make fun of the world ” The statement was also vilified by the leader of the environmentalists, Marine Tondelier, and the first secretary of the Socialist Party, Olivier Faure.
« In the Macronist Republic, only Macron ballots are counted and ministers are counted for life. After the electoral denial, these provocations destroy the minimal trust in the democratic framework. In the end, it is the Republic that they are endangering. ” he lashed out.
Since the head of state’s refusal to appoint Lucie Castets, the left has denounced a ” stolen election “. A speech that redoubled in intensity after the nomination of Michel Barnier to Matignon. Placed under the ” surveillance ” of the National Rally, the tenant of Matignin left to form a very right-wing government pursuing the major economic orientations of Macronism, and ensuring the goodwill of the extreme right to hold on.
