The member quickly received the support of the Prime Minister, Elisabeth Borne, and chuckled that of the main opposition groups in the National Assembly, the Nupes and the National Rally.
But the president of the MoDem François Bayrou, does not see things the same way.

Differences within the majority
“
I am not in favor of tracing political life on that of the United States
”, therefore warns François Bayrou, in dissonance with the president of the LREM group.

And to rekindle his criticism of the tenant of Matignon.
François Bayrou indeed affirmed this Wednesday that "

the Prime Minister be political
", directly targeting Élisabeth Borne.

This Sunday, this is not the only disagreement expressed by the president of the MoDem vis-à-vis Macronie.
On the proposal of the Minister of National Education, Pap NDiaye, to allow school heads to recruit teachers themselves, François Bayrou also expresses his "
disagreement
" and affirms that he does not wish "
to transform the head from establishment to patron of the establishment

This desire to reform the process of recruiting teachers is however defended by the President of the Republic himself.
