The Prime Minister was the guest of “8 p.m.” on France 2 and TF1, on the eve of the vote in the Assembly on two motions which would overthrow the government if they are adopted.
And “responsibility reflex” of the deputies remains “possible”judged Michel Barnier, on the eve of the crucial vote on two motions of censure against his government. During an interview given to France 2 and TF1 from MatignonTuesday December 3, the Prime Minister on reprieve insisted that “the superior interest of the country, the common good, the national interest, that means something”counting on a start among some of the elected officials who intend to bring down his government. Today, “It’s not me who is to blame”, “this goes far beyond my sole condition”he added.
Today, “It’s not me who is to blame”, “this goes far beyond my sole condition”also estimated Michel Barnier. “There is a way to avoid censorship. (…) I cannot believe in voting for censorship”commented for his part Emmanuel Macron, speaking to journalists from Saudi Arabia.
On Monday, Michel Barnier announced that he would use 49.3 to have the Social Security budget, leading to the filing of two motions of censure, carried by the left and by the National Rally.
The two texts will be examined on Wednesday from 4 p.m. in the National Assembly. That of the New Popular Front, which will be voted first, has every chance of being adopted, since the RN has announced its support. By adding their votes, the four left-wing groups and those of the RN and its Ciottist allies can gather around 330 votes, well beyond the 288 votes required.
