Emmanuel Macron announced to party leaders, meeting for more than two and a half hours at the Elysée, that he wanted to appoint “within 48 hours” a new Prime Minister who will discuss with them before forming a government.
“Things have rather advanced” on a simultaneous renunciation of 49.3, a constitutional tool to pass in force in the National Assembly, and censorship, declared the boss of the Socialist Party Olivier Faure as he left the presidential palace.
Enough to make François Bayrou, the president of MoDem, one of Matignon’s favorites, say that the meeting, which excluded the National Rally and La France insoumise, had been “positive in an unexpected way” thanks to a “very constructive climate “. The mayor of Pau spoke of “a democratic cooperation agreement” and proposed to delay on “annoying issues”, such as pensions and immigration.
But not all participants have a uniform reading of this meeting and Marine Tondelier (ecologist) judged that the presidential camp was ready for “no compromise, no concession”.
