The step of two between the presidential coalition and the right at the Palais-Bourbon during the examination of the bill on purchasing power since Monday July 18 in public session, arises. A parliamentary choreography where everyone perceives their interest: the first, deprived of an absolute majority, maintain the group Les Républicains (LR) and its 62 deputies as an essential voice reserve; The latter hope to influence government policy after ten years spent in opposition and the loss of almost half of their contingent after the legislative elections.
