Finally the outcome? President Emmanuel Macron postponed until Friday morning the moment to appoint a Prime Minister, allowing rumors and speculation to flourish between centrist leader François Bayrou, ex-socialist Bernard Cazeneuve or even a surprise candidate like former minister Roland Lescure.
The 48-hour deadline that he himself set last Tuesday before the party leaders will therefore not have been met.
“He concludes his consultations”the presidential entourage told AFP on Thursday evening. But waiting is conducive to the spread of unverified information and a harmful climate in the political class, marked by attacks against potential contenders.
Avoid censorship
One of them admitted late Thursday evening that he was not sure of the president's choices.
The political equation remains infinitely complex despite the movement made by the socialist party. The next head of government will have to create the conditions for his political survival in order not to suffer the fate of Michel Barnier, overthrown on December 4 by the deputies during an unprecedented censorship since 1962, which leaves the country without a budget for 2025.
