“The only solution is a French-style coalition” – Libération

The PS deputy, who pleads for a non-censorship agreement led by the left, proposes to reach an agreement with the “central bloc” on the least divisive subjects: school, health, housing, price of electricity.

In August, the socialist deputy for Eure Philippe Brun was one of the few, in his camp, to plead for discussions on the scale of the anti-National Rally “republican front”. According to him, after the motion of censure adopted against Michel Barnier, the left must be open to compromise with other forces.

You were one of the first, this summer, to talk about a non-censorship agreement. After the fall of Michel Barnier, is this still your position?

I am happy to see that reason is prevailing. In August, my proposal met with an echo, but did not have a political outlet, because the NFP remained in its position and Emmanuel Macron appointed a minority government, which proved incapable of passing a budget. . The problem is that French politics being focused on the presidential election, no one wants to be associated with management over which they do not have full control, but which they would have to account for during the next presidential election. The only solution is a French-style coalition, that is to say letting one camp govern, in exchange for a non-censorship agreement, with negotiations, compromises and proposals that can come from the camp. opposite.

So this is not a government of national unity?

A government of communists
