The cross-partisan motion only needed nine votes to be adopted on Monday. As for that filed by the National Rally (RN), it obtained 94 votes, including six votes from other groups. And this is not the only gain made by Marine Le Pen in this sequence.

But the National Rally has mainly saved for later. With new faces in front of the cameras, Laure Lavalette or Thomas Ménager. No invective, the RN plays the serious card.
