France: Bayrou does not join the government, 'deep dissent' - Breaking news. A deep crack is opening in the Macronian majority in France, with the refusal of the centrist leader François Bayrou to enter Gabriel Attal's government.

Bayrou's name had been circulating in the last few hours as a possible minister of national education, where he undermines the position of Amélie Oudéa-Castéra, overwhelmed by controversy over her children's enrollment in a private school. "You're messing with us...", deputy Jean-Louis allegedly told him Bourlanges.
