Barnier falls: France's first distrust of no confidence in 60 years!
Barnier falls: France's first distrust of no confidence in 60 years!
Paris, Frankreich - A political earthquake shakes France! Prime Minister Michel Barnier and his government were overthrown in a historical vote on Wednesday. With 331 votes against the government in the National Assembly, which counts 577 seats, Barnier has been the first prime minister for more than 60 years, which was discontinued by a vote of no confidence. This dramatic step brings the country into a deep political crisis and raises questions about the budget for the coming year.
The opposition, consisting of left -wing and right -wing radical parties, initiated the vote after Barnier had used special powers to enforce household measures without parliamentary approval. This decision met with massive criticism, especially because of the austerity measures that the poorest citizens of France made hard. Al Jazeera Natacha Butler describes the defeat as a "devastating defeat" for Barnier and his government, which is now faced with the challenge of freeing itself from this political misery.
What happens now?
After the loss of the vote, Barnier is expected to immediately submit his resignation and that of his government to President Emmanuel Macron. The spokesman for the National Assembly, Yael Braun-Pivet, confirmed that Barnier now had to "submit his resignation". France faces an uncertain future, while political turbulence continues. Citizens are excited to see how things will continue and what measures the next government will take to tackle the country's pressing problems.
