Two prospective ministers make Macronists wince
Several prospective ministers are annoying some Macronists. Senator Laurence Garnier, who is expected to be nominated for the Family, is controversial for her positions against same-sex marriage, the constitutionalization of abortion and the decriminalization of conversion therapies. Emmanuel Macron himself is said to have “alerted” his Prime Minister about this divisive profile.
The possibility of Bruno Retailleau, a conservative figure who takes a firm line on immigration, landing at the Interior Ministry also disconcerts some members of the presidential camp. We will see whether Michel Barnier keeps these two personalities or not.
Elected officials ask MoDem to “close ranks”
No time for remorse. Constance Le Grip, Renaissance MP, asks MoDem colleagues to swallow their doubts about the future government. “Given the seriousness of the political moment we are going through, it is urgent to close ranks,” she said on BFMTV.

For Manon Aubry, there is a “fairly strong possibility” that Emmanuel Macron will resign before the next presidential election in 2027.
Wishful thinking of the left or real possibility, we’ll let you be the judge. “Do you think he’s capable of holding his mandate? He’s hated in the country, a minority in public opinion,” she declared. It was also an opportunity to praise… Jean-Luc Mélenchon, according to her, the most likely to succeed the current president.
“We got 8% in the legislative elections, and we already have a Prime Minister from our political family,” boasts Geoffrey Didier, secretary of the Les Républicains party.
“And we won this because we were the ones who vetoed Emmanuel Macron’s idea of having a Prime Minister from the far left.” Not sure we should be publicly celebrating this, but my goodness? He says his party will work “together” with the Macronist camp, even if “it won’t be easy.”
