in case of censorship, Mélenchon urges Macron to resign if he refuses to appoint Castets to Matignon

This Thursday evening, the rebellious leader considered that “the people who created the problems are not the best placed to resolve them.”

Jean-Luc Mélenchon participates in the little ambient music. While the government is threatened with being overthrown by opposition over budgetary texts, when they return to the Assembly in December, what should Emmanuel Macron do in the event that Prime Minister Michel Barnier falls? For several hours, however, some in the political class have said they have found the solution if the situation were to be paralyzed: the resignation of the President of the Republic.

After the deputy Liot Charles de Courson and the LR mayor of Jean-François Copé this Wednesday, it is the turn of Jean-Luc Mélenchon to call on the head of state to withdraw if he does not draw the same conclusions that he of possible censorship. “The New Popular Front (NFP) has already presented a candidacy for prime minister (Lucie Castets, editor’s note). If that doesn't work, the president just has to leave because that's the solution. The rest is business chatter.”the rebellious leader squeaked this Thursday. And to add: “We talk, we get agitated, we don’t decide anything. We don't solve anything and let things continue and rot while the country sinks into a crisis for which we have nothing to do.”

Ambitions displayed

Denouncing the weight of the debt, the social plans, the slow negotiations of the Mercosur treaty, Jean-Luc Mélenchon judged “that the people who created the problem are not the best placed to solve it and the people who have always fought the causes of the problem are on the other hand the best placed to do what comes next.” A short-term future in which the former MP hopes to play a preeminent role.

In the event of the resignation of Emmanuel Macron, against whom the Rebels had already launched an – unsuccessful – impeachment procedure, an early presidential election would take place. Coincidence or not the calendar, Jean-Luc Mélenchon had already displayed his Elysian ambitions two weeks ago: “If it’s an election that takes place right away, no doubt I can be encouraged to go. If it’s in 2027, we have enough succession.” Enough to suggest that his analysis this Thursday evening is not devoid of ulterior motives.
