Rapid Departure During Government Turmoil SĂ©bastien Lecornu was the third PM in a single year, as the republic continued to stumble from one political crisis to another. He quit moments before his initial ministerial gathering on Monday afternoon. The president received Lecornu's resignation on the start of the day. Intense Criticism Over New Cabinet The prime minister had faced furious criticism from political opponents when he presented a recent administration that was virtually unchanged since last month's ousting of his predecessor, his predecessor. The presented administration was dominated by Macron's allies, leaving the government mostly identical. Opposition Reaction Rival groups said the prime minister had reversed on the "significant change" with past politics that he had promised when he came to power from the disliked former PM, who was dismissed on the ninth of September over a planned spending cuts. Future Political Direction The question now is whether the head of state will decide to dissolve parliament and call another sudden poll. Marine Le Pen's political ally, the leader of the far-right leader's political movement, said: "It's impossible to have a reestablishment of order without a fresh vote and the national assembly being dissolved." He stated, "Obviously Emmanuel Macron who chose this government himself. He has understood nothing of the present conditions we are in." Election Calls The far-right party has advocated for another poll, thinking they can expand their seats and role in the legislature. The country has gone through a time of uncertainty and political crisis since the national leader called an unclear early vote last year. The legislature remains divided between the main groups: the progressive side, the nationalist group and the central bloc, with no clear majority. Budget Deadline A budget for next year must be approved within a short time, even though government factions are at disagreement and the prime minister's term ended in under four weeks. Opposition Vote Parties from the progressive side to far right were to hold gatherings on Monday to decide whether or not to support to remove the prime minister in a parliamentary motion, and it appeared that the administration would collapse before it had even commenced functioning. The prime minister apparently decided to resign before he could be removed. Ministerial Appointments The majority of the key cabinet roles revealed on Sunday night remained the same, including GĂ©rald Darmanin as justice minister and the culture minister as cultural affairs leader. The responsibility of economy minister, which is vital as a divided parliament struggles to pass a budget, went to the president's supporter, a Macron ally who had previously served as economic sector leader at the start of Macron's second term. Surprise Selection In a shocking development, Bruno Le Maire, a Macron ally who had worked as economic policy head for an extended period of his presidency, returned to cabinet as national security leader. This enraged leaders across the spectrum, who saw it as a signal that there would be no questioning or alteration of Macron's pro-business stance.
