Bruno Retailleau on bad terms with another minister? “Their visions are sometimes a little different…”

Interministerial tensions are not uncommon within various governments. In the one formed by Michel Barnier in September, and where several political sensitivities coexist, The Parisian of this Tuesday, November 5 reports that a wind of freshness would blow on Places Beauvau and Vendôme. Nothing new, a priori. “Frictions between the Interior and Justice are as old as time”tempers an internal source. The fact remains that between Bruno Retailleau, a member of Les Républicains, and Didier Migaud, a socialist until 2010, disagreements seem very frequent. “Their visions are sometimes a little different but they share a desire to move forward together and achieve results. They are two intelligent, pragmatic politicians who are clear-eyed about people’s expectations.”assures Parisian government spokesperson, Maud Bregeon.

While the tandem is expected to make a joint trip to to unveil measures to combat drug trafficking, a difference of point of view at the level of semantics would divide the two men. When the first cop in talks about putting an end to “narco-scum”the successor of Éric Dupond-Moretti prefers to stick to a more classic judicial lexicon by evoking the “narco-criminals”thus relates daily life. But quarrels of this style would not be isolated cases. When one puts forward a figure concerning the rate of execution of prison sentences, the other points out information “can”. Just that. Despite this, their respective teams are aware of the importance of working hand in hand, as evidenced by the weekly meetings between their cabinet directors.

No “open war” but public spats between Retailleau and Migaud?

On the Place Beauvau side, a close friend of the minister reassures and confirms that he “there will be no open war” between Bruno Retailleau and Didier Migaud despite their regular differences. “Neither of them are sanguine”we point out in the newspaper. This does not prevent the Minister of Justice from putting his colleague in his place when, in his opinion, he exceeds his duties. “It is the Prime Minister who makes the decisions, we are in a government which is not monotonous”he recalls in particular. Gérald Darmanin's successor does not allow himself to make this kind of public comment and brags about it. “The opposite is not true”we emphasize in The Parisian. “They are not on the same radio frequency”also recognizes a government source.
