In the event of censorship of the government voted on Wednesday December 4 in the afternoon in the National Assembly, the leader of the Macronist deputies Gabriel Attal intends to call all the Republican parties, except RN and LFI, to find a compromise, the Franceinfo political service learned on Wednesday.
The Ensemble pour la République MP wants to bring everyone around the table and think about a stability pact, or non-aggression pact. He had already written a letter to this effect last summer. The idea is that each party feels free to vote for or against a proposal from the next Prime Minister, but undertakes not to censor him at the slightest opportunity. “We need to overcome the divisions for a year or two to emerge from the crisis,” pushes a Renaissance frame.
His entourage contacted by franceinfo confirms his idea of launching an initiative, but procrastinates. “For the moment, we are doing everything to avoid censorship, let’s not put the cart before the horse.” A way to avoid new accusations of disloyalty, while Gabriel Attal is perceived by some as one of those responsible for the failure of Michel Barnier, for having put a spoke in his wheels.
In the event of the fall of Michel Barnier's government, the idea is not to put in place a marriage contract, but rather a non-aggression pact where the parties would sign at the bottom of the page to commit not to censor the government in place. The contract would say: “I am not responsible for what the Prime Minister does, I can vote against his proposals, but I do not scold him at the slightest opportunity.”
The solution would come from parties, political groups and not the other way around! For some, Michel Barnier made the mistake, which risks costing him his position, of forming his government before going to negotiate with the groups in the Assembly. There, the objective is to start from an agreement on five or ten points. There are majorities to be found on the end of life for example, or on proportional representation. Only then will it be necessary to think about the name of a Prime Minister.
It won't be easy anyway. The left wants a left-wing Prime Minister, and Michel Barnier's allies point out that they have the most deputies to support one and the same man, when they count Macronists, MoDem, Horizons and the right.
A non-aggression pact is also the idea of the socialist Boris Vallaud. Offers him a non-censorship pact, it's pretty much the same idea. On the PS side, we assure that the communists and ecologists are up for it. The boss of the socialists in the Assembly must say more, according to information from franceinfo, on Wednesday in the hemicycle, when he will speak to defend censorship.
