The collective of minority elected officials from Yvelines calls for a review of the status of elected officials. “At the beginning, you have the feeling of being able to move the lines and very quickly you realize that you have no power,” says Yvon Rosconval, elected in Triel-sur-Seine.
The rate of resignations has been four times higher in the ranks of the municipal opposition since 2020. Almost 50% of the opposition elected officials surveyed do not wish to run again.
