Gabriel Attal facing his first motion of censure.
The motion against the Prime Minister's government, tabled spontaneously on Tuesday by the four left-wing groups in the National Assembly before his general policy speech, will be debated and put to the vote on Monday from 9:30 p.m., we learned from a source parliamentary.
Submitted jointly by the LFI, PS, environmentalist and communist groups, this motion of “no confidence” intends, according to the left, to respond to the fact that the government, with a relative majority in the Assembly, has not requested a vote of confidence.
However, it has little chance of being adopted given the reluctance shown by LR and RN deputies to vote for it.
“Gabriel Thatcher”
The left was not kind on Tuesday after Gabriel Attal's general policy speech, with Jean-Luc Mélenchon estimating in particular on X that it was "the most reactionary speech in a century".
“Attal is very unhappy because the people refuse to admit that they live in paradise,” he also quipped.
