Four months after the legislative elections, the patience of the executive experienced its first limits. Without an absolute majority, the President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron, would be ready to dissolve the National Assembly in the event of the adoption of a motion of censorship against the government. An approach envisaged by a part of the oppositions in the event of appeal by the government in article 49.3 of the Constitution – which allows the adoption of a text without a vote unless the censorship – to pass the bill on pensions That he intends to present “before winter,” said the Prime Minister, Elisabeth Borne, the day after a dinner at the Elysée gathering the majority officials on Thursday.

“If all the oppositions were in line to adopt a censorship motion and bring down the government, [Emmanuel Macron] would recover from the French and the French would decide, and say what is the new majority they want”, A warned, the lapidary, the Minister of Labor, Olivier Dussopt Thursday, September 29, on LCI. It is the first time that a member of the government, a fortiori on behalf of the Head of State, has expressed in these terms since the Big Bang Electoral of June 19, which led the President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron To obtain only 250 deputies in the National Assembly.

“Chiche!” Tweeted Thursday in stride, Marine Le Pen, the president of the 89 deputies of the National Rally (RN) in the Assembly. La France Insoumise (LFI) also took the executive in the word. “When you want: the Nuts [new ecological and social popular union] is ready to get rid of you!” Reacted the leader of the deputies of the left party, Mathilde Panot. The leader “rebellious” Jean-Luc Mélenchon, said to see in these statements not “a threat but an opportunity”, he who has theorizes the day after the legislative elections with his troops the scenario of an imminent dissolution which would lead him to Matignon . “I do not know what he is playing, cracked on his side the leader of the Les Républicains (LR) deputies, Olivier Marleix, about Emmanuel Macron. His role is to operate the institutions of this country.”

In the majority, few believe in this possibility in the immediate future, as the consequences of a campaign without momentum or enthusiasm are still significant within the troops of the presidential coalition. “It is not in the interest of anyone to dissolve the assembly now,” slips the MP of the MoDem, Bruno Fuchs. Before arriving at the dissolution, 58 signatures of deputies are necessary to file a motion of censorship. In order for it to be adopted, 289 deputies must be, the absolute majority, adopt it. “It would be necessary that all the elected officials of the NUPS, those of the RN, and all the Republicans vote together, specifies the constitutionalist Jean-Philippe Derosier, and for that, their parties must have convergent interests to return to the elections. Which does not is not the case today. “
