France: Michel Barnier’s government collapses – Impeachment motions tabled, vote on Wednesday

If the proposals are passed, the government will fall - The Left and the National Rally have tabled two no-confidence motions - Le Pen said her party will vote for all the proposals

Newsroom December 2 06:30

Michel Barnier’s government is one step closer to collapse, after the tabling of no-confidence motions by both the left and far-right parties, following Michel Barnier’s decision to trigger Article 49.3 of the Constitution for the budget, bypassing the vote in Parliament.

So far all indications are that the French government will fall and Michel Barnier will be forced to resign after just 2.5 months in office.

Final “no” from the Council of State on the restoration of the 13th and 14th salaries

The Plenary of the Council of State (StE) has rejected the appeal filed by ADEDY and a public school teacher seeking the reinstatement of the holiday bonuses for public sector employees.
