The inauguration process for legislative elections produces its share of dissatisfied and criticism. The transplant between Emmanuel Macron and rallied support for the moment is struggling to take. And some “apart” embark on dissent.

One regrets having been taken for “a Guignol”, the other feels “betrayed”. They hoped to benefit from the support of the presidential majority within the Confederation Ensemble (La République en Marche, LRM – Renaissance renowned -, the modem or horizons) for the legislative elections of June 12 and 19, before learning with regret that They are not among the 548 candidates (out of 577 constituencies) designated for the moment, after a fourth wave of 43 names, unveiled on Wednesday May 11. The process has inevitably left traces. With its share of disappointments and frustrations, especially among the twenty outgoing macronist deputies who have not been renewed. What leave the risk of dissent in several places.
Flashing the danger, Emmanuel Macron launched a warning on Tuesday by calling the candidates of the majority to be “all gathered to wear the same colors”. A call to unity, which preceded a darker observation: “A re -election leaves less room for what some sometimes call the state of grace. The divisions reborn very quickly.” Remates perceived by participants as a warning “To prevent the ambitions of those who have not been invested”. And, thus, prevent the poison of the division to spread internally.
Because since the first series of majority investitures, on May 5, several failed reported their bitterness in public. Like the Macronist MP for Hauts-de-Seine Jacques Maire, who says “live as an injustice and a misunderstanding” to have been replaced by Prisca Thevenot, spokesperson for LRM. Specialist in international subjects, this close to the Minister of Ecological Transition, Barbara Pompili, is sorry for having been the victim of “a completely unexpected decision, which he learned the day before, without any prior sign”.
from “renewal” to “denial”
He is not the only one. Outgoing deputy, Stéphane Vojetta also had the unpleasant surprise to learn in the press the designation of Manuel Valls in his place in the 5 e district of the French abroad – which includes Spain, Portugal, Andorra and Monaco. Determined to maintain his candidacy, he explains that he wanted to fight against “parachutages and favor of favor”, which he considers that Mr. Valls benefited.
For several other outgoing deputies not renewed, the pill goes all the more bad as they had to fade for “foals” of several macronist barons or shadow collaborators. In Dordogne, Jacqueline Dubois lived as a “betrayal” the investiture of the ex-adviser of the Elysée Jérôme Peyrat. Same resentment at the deputy for Finistère Jean-Charles Larsonneur, dismissed for the benefit of a relative of the president of the National Assembly, Richard Ferrand, or for Claire O’Petit, furious to see a relative of the Minister of Overseas, Sébastien Lecornu, grill the politeness in Eure. Same scenario for Cédric Roussel, in the Alpes-Maritimes. Disavored for an assistant to Christian Estrosi at the town hall of Nice, he launched himself in dissident. Like Aina Kuric in the Marne, excluded in favor of an ex-collaborator of Nicolas Sarkozy, Laure Miller, with the support of the Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin.
