“The sooner you leave, the better,” Jean-Luc Mélenchon, the leader of the ultra-left, the head of “Unconquered France” declared in the meeting hall.
Communists and “ecologists” also supported the motion of no confidence in Bairu’s government. A total of 57 deputies.
Currently, the initiative has low chances of success, since without the votes of the Socialist Party and the far-right National Union, the vote of no confidence will not receive the required number of votes.
Socialists, who have 66 deputies, said that their position will depend on the attitude of the prime minister to the revision of the pension reform. However, even if this party supports the resignation of the government, its further fate will depend on the decision of the “National Union”, which has 124 deputies – the largest faction.
The far-right has not yet announced a final decision, but party president Bardella sharply criticized Bairu’s speech in parliament.
Nothing about purchasing power, nothing about insecurity, nothing concrete about immigration: French life is a blank paragraph in this useless speech,
An absolute majority of 287 votes is needed for the resignation of the new government, while three of the 577 parliamentary seats are currently vacant.
The previous government under the leadership of Michel Barnier was in power for three months.
