At the cost of an interminable wait – and a few refusals – Emmanuel Macron chose a figure of “consensus”, according to the macronist vulgate, by appointing Élisabeth Borne to Matignon.
But it is already coming under criticism from the opposition, launched into the legislative battle.
Once the news flourished on social networks, Marine Le Pen judged that Emmanuel Macron “demonstrates his inability to unite and the desire to continue his policy (…) of social destruction, tax racketeering and laxity.
“To the complete opposite of another former presidential candidate… Valérie Pécresse.
“All my Republican congratulations to Élisabeth Borne.
She undeniably has the necessary commitment to become the second female Prime Minister of our country.
I wish him the best for France, ”wrote on her networks the president LR of Île-de-France.
Congratulations Republican to @Elisabeth_Borne.
She undeniably has the necessary commitment to become the second female Prime Minister of our country.
I wish him the best for France.

Sweet words that we do not find in the lines of Christian Jacob, the boss of the Republicans.
“Change everything to change nothing (…) With the appointment of Elisabeth Borne, we are leaving with the same.
On the side of Éric Zemmour's supporters, Guillaume Peltier estimated that, in 2022, "the entire political class submits to the left" since "Macron appoints a left-wing Prime Minister".

Who is Elisabeth Borne, the new Prime Minister appointed by Emmanuel Macron?
On the left precisely, Olivier Faure recognizes that the appointment of a woman is a “positive point”.
“For the rest…” And the boss of the PS to vilify his ministerial balance sheets.
Same position at EELV, which, via press release, congratulates the appointment of a woman but criticizes her action.
Like a dictionary, Jean-Luc Mélenchon gave his own definition – acid – of the new Prime Minister.
“Bollard: reduction in the allowance of a million unemployed (…) very for retirement at 65 years old.
Forward for a new season of social abuse!
” mocked the Insoumis, who hopes to replace the head of government by winning the legislative elections.
#Borne: reduction in the allowance of 1 million unemployed people, abolition of regulated gas prices, postponement of the end of nuclear power for 10 years, opening up to competition from SNCF and RATP.
Very for retirement at 65.
Forward for a new season of social abuse!

In a video on his YouTube channel, he has already presented himself as his "first opponent" and offered him a public debate.
More or less the same attacks from the communist leader Fabien Roussel, who does not fail to underline that by choosing Élisabeth Borne, "Macron has found his Mrs. Thatcher".
