The deputy Jean-Philippe Tanguy persists and signs on the desire of the RN deputies to support a motion of censure to overthrow the government. This budget specialist judges that Michel Barnier “did not reach out” to Marine Le Pen in recent days.
A warning which does not take the side of the National Rally. Despite the words of Michel Barnier who spoke of “a storm” in the event of the fall of his government this Tuesday, November 26 on TF1, Marine Le Pen's elected officials persist and sign.
“We will vote on the motion of censure with the New Popular Front (NFP),” assured RN deputy Jean-Philippe Tanguy during a press conference this Wednesday morning at BFMTV.
A motion of censure that is getting closer
The Prime Minister risks falling next week on the Social Security budget after the very probable activation of 49.3, this institutional cartridge which allows a budget to be adopted without a vote. In return, this possibility opens up the possibility for oppositions to file a motion of censure.
On paper, it has every chance of being adopted. By adding the votes of the RN and the entire left, she can collect 320 votes, significantly more than the 289 necessary.
If Michel Barnier did reach out to the RN on the question of proportional representation, by commissioning the political scientist Pascal Perrineau for a mission on the subject and mentioned a gesture “to preserve purchasing power”, the tenant of Matignon n did not respond precisely to the requests of the RN.
“Red lines”
Marine Le Pen spoke of her “red lines” after an interview with the Prime Minister on Monday on the state budget. Among these, we find the abandonment of the increase in taxes on electricity, the deindexation of pensions to inflation or even the reduction in reimbursement of certain medicines.
While judging not to have seen “outstretched hand” from Michel Barnier on the budget of the Jean-Philippe Tanguy assures “not looking for a measure” in particular but defends “an overall balance”.
This budget specialist also took advantage of his press conference to respond to Bruno Retailleau, the Minister of the Interior.
“Sometimes vote on things with your political enemies.”
“I do not believe in the motion of censure. For that, Madame Le Pen would have to agree to mix her votes with those of LFI,” criticized the tenant of Place Beauvau, citing a proposal in support of his statement. of the law of rebels on the offense of advocating terrorism, strongly criticized by the RN.
“Institutions and democratic reality require you to vote on things sometimes with your political enemies. That's how it is. What counts is the effect”, assumes Jean-Philippe Tanguy.
According to a poll carried out by Ipsos for La Tribune Dimanche, 53% of French people are in favor of voting for a motion of censure in Parliament against the government of Michel Barnier.
