Poll: winning respite in opinion for Emmanuel Macron

All observers have mentioned Emmanuel Macron's bet last Friday when he decided, in the Defense Council, not to reconfigure the country and to tighten the curfew.

Questioned in the wake, the panel of Kantar is grateful to him for this decision.

Especially those over 65 (54%, +8).

The observation was that the contamination plateau was certainly

“high, but stable.

The situation is serious but not alarming. ”

The respite granted to the French is also a respite that the Head of State has given himself, while knowing that he will have to be reactive if the situation deteriorates.

“The next few days will be decisive,

we explained to the Élysée.

We will never take the risk of saturating hospital beds. ”

Reconfinement is one of the scenarios, but as confirmed by a minister regularly in contact with Emmanuel Macron,

"the President of the Republic wants to do everything to avoid it".

In any case, this respite allows him to detach himself from Nicolas Sarkozy (24% in February 2011) and François Hollande (15% in February 2016) to find himself at the level of François Mitterrand (39% in February 1985).

Bruno Le Maire: + 5

In the microcosm, its competitors and some commentators make fun of a minister who finds time to write books in times of crisis.

The French do not have the same analysis since the boss of Bercy climbs 5 points in a month and becomes the 2nd most popular minister.

Nicolas Dupont-Aignan: + 5

Nicolas Dupont-Aignan should not be buried too quickly.

Those who thought the boss of Debout France was politically dead after the departure of many executives at Marine Le Pen can be sorry.

He visibly retained the voters, according to a presidential poll where he is at 7%, ahead of Anne Hidalgo.
