Olivier Faure reacted to the announcement of the reshuffle by the Elysee Palace this Friday afternoon at the microphone of Europe 1 this Friday. The first secretary of the Socialist Party estimated that “this casting does not matter”, about the new composition of the government which will be unveiled in a few hours.
“I would like us to know the program of this new majority which advances completely masked, which does not say what it will do”, he pointed out. “When I see the hesitations over the appointment of Elisabeth Borne, or Catherine Vautrin… We learned from a few indiscretions and informed journalists that the president had hesitated until Sunday evening. He did not even know who was the person who could best adapt to the policy he intends to conduct.”
“What is the policy to conduct?”
Olivier Faure underlined the publication this Thursday, May 19 of the shared program of the NUPES. The New Popular Ecological and Social Union is an alliance of French left-wing political parties which was created on May 1st.
“There is still a real problem, it is to know what policy to conduct”, continued Olivier Faure. “For now, Emmanuel Macron, we don’t know. We just know that he wants to raise the legal retirement age to 65, which is certainly not a left-wing measure.”
