While the motion of censure got the better of Michel Barnier’s governmentall heads are turned towards the Elysée while waiting for President Emmanuel Macron to appoint a new Prime Minister.
For several days rumors have been going well and the announcement should be made in the next hours or even the next minutes, since thehe head of state announced that he wanted to appoint Michel Barnier’s successor by Thursday. François Bayrou is the one most likely to take this position… While he is waiting for the precious call, he has just received another one that he did not expect at all…
“Who’s on the phone?” : François Bayrou responds to Cyril Hanouna
Indeed, Cyril Hanouna who hosts the show We walk on our heads on Europe 1 between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. called François Bayrou from the radio studios. Lhost of Don’t touch my post tried it and managed to get François Bayrou on the line for a few seconds before the latter hung up on him.
François Bayrou picks up on the first ring. “Hello, yes, hello François Bayrou?“begins Cyril Hanouna, before the politician confirms.”Who is on the phone?” he asks. “Hello François Bayrou, we are live on Europe 1, cThis is Cyril Hanouna, we wanted to tell you that we would be very happy if you were Prime Minister, so we are waiting, we hope” continued Cyril Hanouna, before launching: “Ah, he hung up!“
“We got it anyway, it’s incredible” he continued, in front of the chroniclers who couldn’t believe it.”We were at the heart of political history” declares Olivier Dartigolles. “Do you know why he picks up? He’s waiting for the phone call! Are you guys crazy or what? It’s an 01 calling, it’s incredible. He confused Europe 1 and the Élysée” assures Baba. Despite this little rake, the C8 host blurts out: “He seems nicer than the others” to laughter from the studio.
“A crazy emotional elevator”
“You know whether he is named or not, he will tell this anecdote. It’s sure” commented journalist Gauthier Le Bret. “He must have hung up and said to himself: ‘It’s that idiot Hanouna!” continued the host of TPMP.
“Let’s imagine that it’s not him, let’s imagine that François Bayrou is not Prime Minister, At 4:49 p.m., he had a call from a number 01, he said to himself, this is certainly the Elysée switchboard to tell me, that’s it… There, he hears, it’s Cyril Hanouna on Europe 1, the emotional elevator is crazy. It’s like you’re going down 28 floors all at once!” débriefed Cyril Hanouna.
