LIVE – Budget 2025: Marine Le Pen received by Michel Barnier at Matignon

On LCI, this Monday morning, the coordinator of La France insoumise (LFI) Manuel Bompard believes that Michel Barnier “is stubbornly wanting to force through a budget which will result in reductions in purchasing power, in cuts in certain ministries, by increasing electricity prices and electricity taxes. “We had fundamentally modified a budget in the Assembly to make it a more socially just and more economically efficient budget,” indicates the LFI deputy.

The president of the RN group in the National Assembly Marine Le Pen has just arrived in Matignon, where she is received by Prime Minister Michel Barnier this morning.

Repeal the offense of condoning terrorism from the Penal Code to reserve it for press rights as was the case ten years ago? The Insoumis are proposing this measure, the far right, the right and the center are clearly opposed to this proposal. On TF1, Marc Fesneau also deplored this idea. “I consider that La France insoumise moves over time from provocation to indignity and infamy in terms of proposals,” he criticized. “A part of the left is dissociating itself, I hope that it will do so more clearly and frankly,” he continued. For the president of the Democrats group in the National Assembly, “we must fight terrorism and apologizing is part of the terrorists’ strategy.”

Guest of Hello! On TF1 Morning, Marc Fesneau, president of the Democrats group in the National Assembly, castigated the National Rally, while the RN is increasingly openly threatening to censor the government. “Marine le Pen is not the one who will guide our action,” declared Marc Fesneau. “We are not going to focus on Marine le Pen’s measures, otherwise it would have to be part of the ‘common base’ which is not the objective,” he continued.

“We are not going to spend our time being subjected to the ukases, the desideratas, the threats, the intimidations of the RN who would vote with the New Popular Front, with people on whom they do not agree on anything”, estimated the former Minister of Agriculture.

Michel Barnier speaks with opposition leaders this Monday at the Hôtel de Matignon. He first receives the president of the RN group at the Assembly Marine Le Pen at 8:30 a.m., with Jean-Philippe Tanguy, the deputy president of this group. After Marine Le Pen, Michel Barnier will receive this Monday Stéphane Lenormand, president of the Liot group at the Assembly, Éric Ciotti, president of the UDR group at the Assembly then the president of the La France insoumise group Mathilde Panot at the end of the afternoon .

The Prime Minister will also receive the socialists Boris Vallaud and Patrick Kanner and the ecologists Cyrielle Chatelain and Guillaume Gontard on Wednesday, then the communists André Chassaigne and Cécile Cukierman on Thursday. Those responsible for the “common base” (LR, Renaissance/EPR, MoDem, Horizons) will be received together on Tuesday morning, like every week.

Will Michel Barnier fall on budgets? The Prime Minister, who will “probably” use article 49.3 of the Constitution to have the budget adopted, is meeting this week with the heads of parliamentary groups. He begins his consultations with Marine Le Pen on Monday morning in Matignon, while the National Rally threatens more and more openly to censor the government.

Hello and welcome to this live broadcast in particular devoted to the consultations of Prime Minister Michel Barnier, this Monday, within the framework of the 2025 draft budget.
