In France, the council of ministers was held this Tuesday, May 30 at the Elysée. The opportunity chosen by the Head of State to reframe his head of government after the exit of Elisabeth Borne on the National Rally.
“ You will not be able to make millions of French people who voted for the extreme right believe that they are fascists. Attacking the RN with 1990s words doesn’t work “. These words come from the mouth of Emmanuel Macron, according to several media, two days after his Prime Minister described the National Rally as heir to the Marshal Petain on Radio J.
The majority divided on the RN
“ They must be discredited by the substance and the inconsistencies “, would have added the head of state. And he is right according to Marc Ferraci, Renaissance MP: “ There are other ways to fight the National Front and the far right »
But within the majority, there is debate. The MoDem deputy, Erwan Balanant, rather agrees with the Prime Minister. ” Me, I fight it ruthlessly all the time by recalling their origins, by recalling their proposals. We must not calm things down with the National Rally. »
Meanwhile, the National Rally counts the points and rubs its hands. “ They are no longer wondering how to improve the lives of the French. They are no longer wondering how to save France. They are wondering how they will survive the tidal wave that surely represents the National Rally “, points out Laurent Jacobelli, spokesperson for the party, at the microphone of Pierrick Bonno of the political service of RFI.
A reframing made public when Emmanuel Macron seems determined to regain control after the disastrous episode of the pension reform.
