In full summer vacation, is Bruno Retailleau on the start? The Minister of the Interior sent some missiles to an explosive interview to Current values Tuesday evening online. “Macronism will end with Emmanuel Macron, simply because Macronism is neither a political movement nor an ideology: it is essentially based on a man. I do not believe in the ” at the same time ”, because it feeds helplessness, “notably exhausted the boss of the Republicans. Declarations that exceeded the first concerned. “These words are, once again, unacceptable […] Being a member of the government under the authority of the President of the Republic is a particularly heavy responsibility which does not tolerate provocations or small political calculations, “reacted the Renaissance party, led by Gabriel Attal. With this umpteenth controversy, did Bruno Retailleau go too far for macronists this time?
“His maintenance in post arises”
Because Bruno Retailleau is not at his first try. The Vendéen multiplies the shattering statements and criticism in recent weeks. He does not hesitate to also threaten to leave the government due to divergences on tensions with Algeria or proportional. “He plays his personal card for 2027 and seeks to take advantage of his visibility to the Ministry of the Interior, but he cannot be part-time … His disrespect for the President of the Republic went too far, the question of his maintenance arises”, annoys Olga Givernet, deputy Renaissance of Ain. “I do not feel the partner or the ally of the LR family. We are in a form of coalition, but when Retailleau says something, I do not feel engaged by his words, ”deplores another macronist elected.
The Minister of Emmanuel Macron says he wants to keep his independence from the head of state, with the presidential election 2027 in the lead. “He is not the only one to criticize macronism. What did he do more than Sophie Primas? “Has laughs the Senator LR Marc-Philippe Daubresse, while the government spokesperson also announced the death of macronism. “The government in place is not that of Macron, it is a cohabitation imposed by dissolution. Bruno Retailleau continues to express his structural disagreements with Macron, which he has always done, ”sweeps this close to the Minister.
But the tensions have never been so strong and now threatens to explode the fragile alloy tried by François Bayrou to govern without majority in the National Assembly. “Why are colleagues also likely?” », Ironize Anne-Laure Blin, MP of Maine-et-Loire. “I invite them to go to the field reconnect with the French if they think their balance sheet is so positive. Bruno Retailleau is in the government base, but keeps his freedom of speech. We are not going to make a whole dish, ”sighs the elected right.
“He prepares us a ciotti”
But this “at the same time” annoyed within macronists. Especially since the former director of Puy du Fou is trying to hunt on the land of the national rally. One more “provocation” for the supports of Emmanuel Macron, twice against Marine Le Pen in the second round of the presidential election. “His detachment of the common base is as annoying as his foot calls to RN voters. It looks like he is preparing a Ciotti (who had allied himself with Jordan Bardella’s party). We need a reframing of the Prime Minister, ”insists Olga Givernet. The interested party should meet François Bayrou this Thursday evening in Matignon. For a rowing in good standing? “I am always ready to discuss,” smiled Bruno Retailleau, this Thursday during a press briefing on the sidelines of a trip to a Parisian police station. The discussion with Emmanuel Macron, scheduled before the controversy, has been postponed. “This meeting will undoubtedly be handed over because we have with the president a certain number of subjects that we must speak, regardless of the date, or the time …”, added the Minister of the Interior. The implosion of the common block may not be for immediately, but the incident seems to have left traces.
