Last Council of Ministers of the five-year term this Wednesday, May 11, and now the negotiations for the future government are starting in earnest!
According to our information, Emmanuel Macron has begun to approach and sound out several personalities likely to join the next government team, and around ten names have already been sent to the High Authority for the Transparency of Public Life (HATVP), the organization in charge of reviewing the heritage of the aspirants before their possible appointment.
Who is it ?
Mystery at this point.
Nothing filters.
Like the name of the person who will succeed Jean Castex at Matignon.
“A dozen names screened by the HATVP, it's just a first wave.
Of course, there will be others.
We will have to expect a large turnover, the president has the desire to replace the government in depth to breathe new life, ”slips a very close to the head of state.
“No one has a guarantee of anything.
It's the omerta of the castle "
Not enough to reassure the forty outgoing ministers and secretaries of state, suspended for days from this major reshuffle.
“We have no signal, nothing to suggest whether we are going to be renewed or not.
It's not the most pleasant period, ”confides the adviser to a prominent minister.
“No one has a guarantee of anything.
It is the omerta of the castle ”, abounds a member of the government.
The period is long, and for good reason: “Macron must make sure to respect parity, the HATVP checks for its part if the people approached have paid their taxes and have assets in order.
It necessarily takes a little time… ”slips an employee.
And the President of the Republic is careful not to give the slightest clue… If this Wednesday, he was “very complimentary of Jean Castex”, according to a participant, going so far as to estimate that “he looked at him like his brother “, he especially ensured, when the time came to congratulate the ministers, to do it “in a general way”.
Understand: without quoting anyone, because giving a name would necessarily have been interpreted.
In short, the Chinese torture continues for everyone.
It could last until this weekend, at least.
Or more likely at the beginning of next week with the appointment of the new Prime Minister, then of his government in stride.
