The essential
Three weeks after being re-elected, Emmanuel Macron announced his choice for Matignon on Monday afternoon: former Minister of Labor Elisabeth Borne.
The Prime Minister had lunch on Tuesday at the Elysée.
On the menu: the composition of his ministerial team.
In the stables, the forecasts are obviously going well.
The first round of legislative takes place in 25 days.

Idrac praise on Borne
Anne-Marie Idrac, former boss of the RATP and the SNCF, former Minister of Transport, says she does not know if the President of the Republic has really imposed on Elisabeth Borne his chief of staff, Aurélien Rousseau.
"We must not forget that the boss is Macron," she sums up.
A woman on the right, Idrac praises the “very clear, very brilliant, very upright gaze” and the pragmatism of Elisabeth Borne, whom she knows personally.
"She will succeed" the pension reform, as well as the ecological transition, "by training us, listening and convincing".

An anti-sexist front around Elisabeth Borne
"Madame Castex, I read this name in the press this morning, it's still very limited", annoys Laurence Rossignol.
The socialist vice-president of the Senate announces on France 2 that “we will be very united with Elisabeth Borne whatever the labels”, if she suffers from sexist attacks.
“Critics will have to remain political,” she warns.

The expectations of a feminist towards Borne
“A woman Prime Minister is expected to bring civil society demands to defend women.
62% of people who receive the minimum wage are women, it would be a good measure for her to bring a substantial increase in the minimum wage, ”said Laurence Rossignol, socialist vice-president of the Senate, on France 2.
But, she warns, if Elisabeth Borne has skills and a ministerial background, "she does not have an activist past", therefore, perhaps, a lack of "convictions".

No cabinet meeting today
Completed afterwards, the agenda of the President of the Republic on the website of the Elysée, mentions some of his appointments yesterday but says nothing about this Wednesday or the days to come.
Presumably, the tradition of the council of ministers every Wednesday morning will not be respected this week.

Oh, these young people!
We see them different, committed, militant, individualistic, shocked.
The “young people”, this category to which all politicians dream of clinging, are “structurally favorable” to the left, according to the Jean-Jaurès Foundation, which publishes a survey this Wednesday.
In the first round of the presidential election, 18-24 year olds voted 36% for Jean-Luc Mélenchon.
And for the legislative elections, the "New Popular Ecological and Social Union" (Nupes), is currently measured "at 59% of voting intentions among 18-24 year olds and 44% among 25-34 year olds" by the study, "figures much higher than what we see for other political parties".
But that the candidates do not dream too much: “young people are much more abstentionists than the other generations”.
41% of 18-24 year olds did not vote in the first round of the presidential election, compared to 28% in the general population.

In our ears
This morning, radio and TV mornings will abound.
There will be politicians from all sides, senators, deputies, a former minister, Anne-Marie Idrac, past, like Elisabeth Borne, at the head of the RATP and the SNCF, but also legislative candidates.
On the other hand, none of the ministers who resigned collectively on Monday evening and who, perhaps, hope to keep their morocco.
