The interview with Apolline de Malherbe this Tuesday, December 3 was a little tense on the BFMTV antenna. Olivier Faure was surprised by a sentence from the journalist and he let her know.
Political news is once again at the center of attention.
The possibility that Michel Barnier will have to leave the government is on the table and Apolline de Malherbe was able to count on the presence of Olivier Faure to come and talk about it. This Tuesday, December 3, it was in the program Face-à-Face that the secretary of the Socialist Party came to speak. The interview began with a remark from the journalist, which was commented on.
“You dreamed of bringing down the Prime Minister, in the end it was Marine Le Pen who did it. Shall we say thank you Marine?” she said.
Initially surprised but also annoyed, Olivier Faure simply stated: “You’re swollen.” For her part, the journalist did not give in and immediately wanted to react. “You wouldn’t have succeeded if she didn’t come to your rescue”declared Apolline de Malherbe. A remark which had the desired effect since Olivier Faure then provided details. “that’s not at all how it happens”, he confided before continuing:
“The reality is that we tried, for two months, to negotiate with the Prime Minister, to make proposals, to tell him that there was another possible path.”
Olivier Faure: “He never tried to discuss with us”
Olivier Faure affirms: Michel Barnier never wanted to discuss with the members of the Socialist Party. “He only reached out to Marine Le Pen”, he declared, a bit annoyed. The secretary also specifies that Michel Barnier only discussed with Marine Le Pen, putting aside all the other parties. “The only one with whom he entered into dialogue, even to the point of assuming it in a press release yesterday and ultimately, he did not succeed”,
he lamented before adding: “The truth is that he never tried to argue with us.”
Olivier Faure is blunt on the subject: if Michel Barnier had wanted to have discussions with the members of the Socialist Party, he could have done so. However, when the two presidents of the group introduced themselves to him a few days ago, he simply said: “I am a prisoner of my common base and therefore I cannot concede anything to you.” Enough to make Apolline de Malherbe react, who immediately asks:
“He said that? He said the word 'prisoner?'”. A formulation that Olivier Faure confirms by declaring that the Prime Minister would have “recognized as being a prisoner of its common base”.
Olivier Faure: “We are not trying to bring him down”
With this censorship, what is the goal of the competing parties? For Olivier Faure, bringing down Emmanuel Macron is not their main objective. “It is an illusion that we cannot maintain,” he said before continuing: “The time has not come to bring down the head of state.” For her part, Marine Le Pen explained her decision to vote for censorship of the government on the Social Security budget.
In a message shared on X, she provided numerous details. She evokes the “eccentric and ridiculous explanations” of certain ministers and adds that this choice was taken in order to protect the French
“a dangerous, unjust and punitive budget which also aggravates the already monstrous deficits of seven years of macronism” we can read.
