2021-05-09T09:54:13.633Z


The agreement between LREM and Renaud Muselier in the South Paca region has turned into a fiasco. After Sophie Cluzel's threat to resubmit a list, the s


"I'm so ashamed ..." This sigh of a figure of the majority says a lot about the fiasco of the agreement reached by the presidential majority with the president LR of the South region, candidate for his re-election, Renaud Muselier for " block the RN ”and“ recompose ”the political field.

Worked and negotiated for a long time in high places, announced by Jean Castex in person, last Sunday, the alliance was to provoke a breathtaking effect.

But, torpedoed by LR, it ultimately had the effect of a sulphate.

The terms of the agreement, passed before the Prime Minister intervened, were clear: 30% of representatives of the presidential majority on the lists and a number two place in the Var for Sophie Cluzel, Secretary of State and head of file of LREM.

Alas, under pressure from his family, Muselier gave up.

"A headless duck!"

Torpedo a Walker.

Gathered Tuesday evening around the boss of LREM, Stanislas Guerini, the executives of Modem, Agir and Territories of Progress learn live that he promises his LR friends not to take either LREM parliamentarian or minister on his list .

What to do ?

The question is then not settled.

"I no longer try to understand"

It was not until Friday morning that Sophie Cluzel put the pressure back on. "I am a candidate for the presidential majority, the presidential majority will be represented in the first round," she argues on France Info. The intervention was decided the day before, during a new meeting bringing together Cluzel, Guerini, his number two Marie Guévenoux, but also the boss of LREM deputies Christophe Castaner, who maintains a close link with Muselier, and the Elyos adviser Thierry Solère , who had negotiated the agreement.

Should we hear that the Secretary of State will finally submit her list?

"I no longer try to understand", loose a deputy.

Because it is not so clear.

"The Cerfa are signed

(Editor's note: the application forms),

she is ready to submit a list if necessary", confides a framework of the majority.

"It is the hypothesis which holds the cord", adds a leader of LREM.

The door remains open to a deal by the first round, however, which sends the ball back to Muselier's court.

The “re-candidacy” of @s_cluzel, after 1 week of interminable soap opera, is a narrow logic of the political apparatus!


I remain faithful to my logic of the gathering, with personalities 100% committed to #Notreregiondabord, around our assessment and our program.

Is dialogue even still possible?

“The

re-candidacy

of Sophie Cluzel, after a week of endless soap opera, is a narrow logic of the political apparatus!

"Tackles president LR de Paca on Twitter, while saying" remain (r) faithful to a logic of the rally ".

"Everyone plays liar poker", laments a macronist, worried, like many others, of the deleterious effects of this entry into the campaign: "It must not be damaged more ..."

Anyway, May 17, date of filing of the lists, this week will leave traces.

“The returned image is catastrophic.

People fear for their health and safety and they see politics arguing.

It does not reassure the participation… ”breathes an LR executive from the south.

In all these heads, the fear that Thierry Mariani, head of the RN list, Mariani could pull the chestnuts out of the fire.

Beyond the region's borders, too, the soap opera caused heavy damage. LR is fractured by the departures of the mayors of Nice and Toulon, Christian Estrosi and Hubert Falco, with whom Emmanuel Macron has maintained the link for months. “The coup is successful. It's a real shit for them! »Cut a faithful of the president. Problem, this soap opera is not good either for the presidential majority, tossed about by the barrage of LR and divided on the conduct to be carried out. "Macron breaks on the right, but it also breaks LREM", alarmed a member of the left wing. Prejudice also for the Prime Minister, who appeared on the front line… A Walker, beside himself: “Before claiming the stroke of genius, we had to wait to see if it really worked! "
