Il Bayrou Government remains in the saddle. The motion of censure promoted by La France insoumise of Mélenchon, by the communists and the ecologists was clearly rejected by the National Assembly: only 131 votes in favour against the 288 needed to reach the quorum. The abstentions of the Lepenists and socialists. The attitude of the socialists was the most novel element yesterday because, even with a thousand doubts, the socialists distanced themselves from the Popular Front dominated by Mélenchon's maximalism and, while remaining in opposition, they declared with their secretary Olivier Faure to "be ready to compromise" if the proposals of the Bayrou Government convince them to meet their requests.
The debate on the controversial issue will be decisive pension reform, to improve which Prime Minister Bayrou will convene a conclave between the social parties: if they find an agreement the reform will be correct, otherwise it will remain as it is today.
