Announced for several weeks on the departure of Matignon, the fate of Elisabeth Borne now seems sealed after the televised address by Emmanuel Macron.
Here is one that can be reassured. While she was announced on the departure for several weeks after the passage in force of the pension reform, Elisabeth Borne gained a few days of reprieve at Matignon. 100 exactly. Since Emmanuel Macron announced during his televised address on Monday April 17 that there was “before us a hundred days of peace, of unity and actions in the service of France”. Elisabeth Borne must detail her roadmap as soon as “next week”. She therefore has 100 days ahead of her to take the next step and play the appeasement with the social partners and the opposition. which gives him a bit of reprieve, until July 14.
However, rumors were rife about his possible replacement at Matignon. And ministers did not hide their ambitions to succeed him. For the past few weeks, the break between Emmanuel Macron and Elisabeth Borne seemed to have begun and the Prime Minister was under the fire of criticism. Despite the small sentences against her, she resisted and remains, for the moment, at Matignon.
