Michel Barnier confronted with the rising risk of censorship of the RN within the National Assembly | EUROtoday

As if to defy hazard, Michel Barnier invited the one who could possibly be deadly to his future. Monday, November 25 within the morning, Marine Le Pen needs to be obtained by the Prime Minister at Matignon. The 73-year-old former European commissioner, famend for his confirmed negotiating expertise throughout Brexit, thinks, due to this assembly, to dissuade the president of the deputies of the National Rally (RN) group, from doing so fall, him and his authorities? It has been a number of days because the far-right chief, on the coronary heart of a trial for embezzlement of European funds, has brandished the specter of government censorship able to plunging the nation into the unknown.

The situation has already been written by the RN: between December 18 and 20, the Prime Minister might need to set off article 49.3 of the Constitution to have the 2025 price range adopted, with no vote by Parliament, aimed toward saving the nation 60 billion euros. The far-right social gathering would then give the kiss of demise by contributing its votes (140 together with these of Eric Ciotti’s elected officers) to a censure filed by the left-wing alliance of the New Popular Front (NFP, 192 deputies). The authorities of Michel Barnier could be overthrown.

“It has become inevitable”judges MEP Philippe Olivier, shut advisor to Marine Le Pen. “The point is to block a fifty-first bankruptcy budget and a good-for-nothing government that follows the same political line as Borne and Attal [les deux précédents premiers ministres d’Emmanuel Macron] »supports Jean-Philippe Tanguy, deputy (RN) for the Somme and loyal to the elected official for Pas-de-Calais.

Bluff? The ministers, like Michel Barnier, appear to have built-in the disastrous speculation. On November 19, interviewed on France Inter, Catherine Vautrin (in control of territories), punctuates her sentences with a “if we are still here at the start of the year”. The head of presidency feigns resignation. “I am ready to leave tomorrow morning if the conditions are no longer right (…) to reform this country”, he warned, on November 15, on France Bleu, recalling that he did not “rolled on the ground” to get his job.

“The goodwill towards Barnier is over”

“Michel Barnier is aware of the precariousness of his situation. He lives with this sword of Damocles”puts an advisor from Matignon into perspective. Upon his appointment on September 5, the former European commissioner was described as “under surveillance” of the extreme right. The Lepenist party has the largest number of seats in the National Assembly, when it and its “common base” (the right and the center) do not have a majority. “Nothing can be done without the RN”, boasted, on September 7, Jordan Bardella, president of the party.
