The new Prime Minister, François Bayrou, will not attend the next community council of the Pau Béarn Pyrénées agglomeration, scheduled for Thursday, December 19.
I promise, he won’t do it a second time. While a community council of the Pau Béarn Pyrénées conurbation, of which he is president, is due to be held this Thursday, François Bayrou will ultimately be absent, indicates France Bleu Béarn Bigorre.
Last Monday, the new Prime Minister decided to go by Falcon to Pau to chair the municipal council of his city, which had earned him strong criticism, while Mayotte was hit this weekend by a cyclone. extreme violence. A round trip estimated at 18,000 euros. A sense of urgency that will cost him dearly.
“The French people deserve better”
At the heart of the controversy: the problem of the accumulation of Prime Minister-Mayor of Pau mandates. “Your place was not in Pau this evening,” said Jean-François Blanco, an elected environmentalist from Pau. “Your place was either in Paris or in Mayotte. It is a dramatic illustration that there is an incompatibility between the two functions,” he adds.
“A mistake,” the man from Béarn finally agreed. So much so that this Thursday, he will not attend the community council of the agglomeration, not even by videoconference. And this, for the first time since he assumed the presidency. Instead, the mayor of Pau will be replaced by the first vice-president of the agglomeration, Monique Sémavoine, close to the Prime Minister.
