RN poses traps in its parliamentary niche

In order to garner parliamentary victories, the extreme right will put two texts developed by others: aid for victims of domestic violence and the reintegration of non -vaccinated caregivers.

A niche full of traps. This is what the National Rally (RN) will offer deputies on January 12, 2023, when one day, the first in its history, will be reserved for the law proposals of its choice. His? Not quite. Among the texts that the Marine Le Pen group wishes to submit in priority, one comes from the “rebellious”, the other from the government majority.

The RN thus puts the government and the opposition from the left in the overhang: will they vote a text put in the agenda by the extreme right, at the risk of cracking what remains of the health cord, or Will they oppose a text they previously supported, a contortion that should then be explained to the French? “We want to advance our subjects and put the other groups uncomfortable,” warned Renaud Labaye, secretary general of the RN group in the National Assembly, about this niche which has been cogatory for the month of September.
