Barely installed at the town hall of Pau, François Bayrou proposed, in a sober and mournful tone, a minute of silence. This Monday, December 16, the new Prime Minister wants to pay tribute to the thousands of feared victims after the passage of Cyclone Chido in Mayotte on Saturday. The island offers the spectacle of devastation and chaos. A situation “extremely worrying”estimates the tenant of Matignon.
But it was not the Prime Minister who spoke that evening. It's the mayor. Or rather both. Between his duties at Rue de Varenne and his mandate at the head of the Béarnaise town which he has occupied since 2014, François Bayrou has decided “not to choose”, we declare in Matignon. It doesn't matter what the Elysée thinks. To hell with the custom which had forced his predecessors, from Jean Castex to Edouard Philippe, to abandon their town hall to better manage the affairs of the country. A situation which is not to the taste of the President of the National Assembly, Yaël Braun-Pivet, who affirmed, Tuesday on franceinfo, that she would have “preferred that the Prime Minister take the plane to Mayotte”devastated by a cyclone, rather than attend the municipal council.
