Emmanuel Macron will not have been spared during his five-year term. After the Benalla Affair, the claims of the Yellow Vests and the SNCF strike, the coronavirus again put its government to the test. Since deconfinement began on May 11, the President of the Republic has to face many social tensions : The protests against police violence and the demands of the healthcare workers involved during the health crisis are making the headlines today. Emmanuel Macron must therefore take the boat despite the rumors of an imminent reshuffle, the heartbreak within LREM, and the pellets of the members of his government.
Gerald Darmanin's mistake
Monday June 15, 2020, the Minister of Public Accounts Gérald Darmanin was on the set of BFMTV. The politician announced on the set without prior consultation that the coverage of partial unemployment would drop by 10% from July 1. "60% instead of 70% of salaries will be taken care of", he explained. False words that the head of state would not have liked.
Emmanuel Macron's reaction
According to information from Duck Chained, Brigitte Macron’s husband would have attacked his minister. "It’s not worth going to a morning radio station and telling bullshit", he would have launched in front of his collaborators. The Minister of Labor Muriel Pénicaud was then responsible for correcting the situation. "There will be no change in compensation for employees in partial activity on July 1", she announced in a press release.
