The construction was not easy, because of the enmities between some and different wills. Finally, this common house ” won’t be quite a party, but it will be more than just a banner », Summarizes one of its craftsmen.
Objectives of this project: first to unite the majority before the presidential battle. But also to offer shelter to all those who would rally Emmanuel Macron, but who would not want to join a party. And then last objective, and not the least, the macronists want to agree to present a single candidate of the majority per constituency during the legislative elections. This thanks to the creation of a joint investiture commission: it is at this moment that we will judge the solidity of this “house”.
