In the new 49.3 drawn by Elisabeth Borne on the budget of the “Security”, the deputies of the National Rally (RN) responded Thursday October 27 by the filing of a censure motion, just like the elected officials of France Insoumise (LFI), this time alone on the left.

The Marine Le Pen group made the suspense last all day before opting for such a motion. “The conjunction of social, economic and energy crises requires urgently changing our social policy for more justice”, proclaims its text transmitted to the press. The 89 elected officials of the far right also deplore it that “the government [has] no desire to find compromise measures with oppositions” and that it “refuses that a large number of subjects are debated”.

On the left, the LFI group was determined on Thursday morning. “We are going to do it, in any case on the” rebellious “side, because we should not trivialize the 49.3”, explained Eric Coquerel. Then the leader of “rebellious” deputies, Mathilde Panot, confirmed this deposit “Faced with an irresponsible and minority government which only knows the passage in force”.

A absolute majority deprived, the tenant of Matignon activated Wednesday evening, for the third time in a week, the constitutional weapon of the 49.3 which allows to pass without vote a text of law, except for an accuracy of a motion of censorship. In response to the first two, on the revenue of the state budget and that of the Société, the Nutpe Alliance had filed two motions.

the key vote?

But even before the vote, and with a budgetary marathon which could pass in total through a dozen 49.3 by mid-December, their differences in strategy were heard: LFI is favorable to systematic deposits, the rest of The clip (socialists, communists, environmentalists) much less.

“We continue to be ulcerated by the practice of 49.3 and the whole of the budgetary work [of the executive] will deserve new motions. However, we think that this is not the right choice of Trunning the motions of censorship, “the Communist Pierre Dharréville told Agence France-Presse (AFP). His group would have “preferred to lead to a shared strategy” on the left but “respects” LFI’s decision and says he is “willing to vote the motion”. Socialists have not yet taken a stand. And environmentalists have not yet discussed it.

“It is necessary again again that we do not agree, while the message has passed, it is not necessarily obvious”, according to the deputy PS Arthur Delaporte about the deposit of a motion. “There are differences of appreciation within the cloud but no drama,” insists one of the actors on the left.

the RN and LFI assure not to make an alliance

The surprise rally, Monday, of the voices of the RN to one of the Nuts motions – “a punch in the belly”, for the boss of PS deputies, Boris Vallaud – caused discomfort in the ranks and a Avalanche of presidential camp attacks. Emmanuel Macron castigated Wednesday evening “cynicism” and “disorder” of oppositions, accusing the left of having put himself “hand in hand” with the national rally.

“There is no alliance, there will be none,” retorted Thursday evening on France 2 Jean-Luc Mélenchon, after deputy RN Jean-Philippe Tanguy had already challenged all “negotiation , neither formal nor informal with the left “, during a press conference.

For a motion to pass, “the RN and the LR must vote it”, recalls an LFI deputy. “But if we do it every time and we are the only ones [on the left] to vote it, it is a problem. We do not want to feed a story of the division.” “The lesson, the lesson, the lesson, the lesson, the lesson, the lesson, the lesson, the lesson, the lesson, It is that we will make a censorship motion which will be invoked by the RN, “called the ecologist MEP Yannick Jadot.

Thursday.

The LFI text transmitted to AFP cites the communist Ambroise Croizat, one of the founding fathers of social security, and denounces “a new austerity cure” with this budget.

Motions should be debated on Monday. However, they have almost no chance of overthrowing the government. The Social 2023 budget project will be considered adopted at first reading, and will go to the Senate.
