NUPES AND ENSEMBLE HAVE OPPOSITE PROGRAMS AND DOCTRINE TO GOVERN FRANCE NUPES has a purely left-wing program with six hundred and fifty (650) proposals, the key measures of which are as follows: • The increase of the minimum wage to €1,500 net; • Return to retirement at age 60; • Price freezes on basic necessities; • Ecological planning; • The establishment of a Sixth Republic. • An autonomy allowance for young people. "TOGETHER" THE PRESIDENTIAL'S PARTY RISKS OF NOT HAVING THE ABSOLUTE MAJORITY TO GOVERN This very tight result with a very close score, almost equal between the Together group (Presidential Majority) calls into question the absolute Presidential majority. According to estimates, political scientists and experts in this group Ensemble, could win between 260 and 290 parliamentary seats. However, it takes 289 (because there are 577 seats) to obtain an absolute majority in the hemicycle of the National Assembly. On the other hand, the leftist group NUPES, according to estimates, could obtain between 150 and 190 seats, placing it as the first opposition force in the National Assembly. NUPES, whose leader Jean Luc Melenchon, who was the leader of LFI La France Insoumise, already had a group in the National Assembly with 17 deputies who were extremely active and noticed during sessions in parliament, by their blows of big operations coup fist, and a communication (You need at least 15 to form a group). Jean Luc Melenchon succeeded in recreating a political family of the left which was in agony with a socialist party adrift, especially since the masterful failure of Anne Hidalgo, (Mayor of Paris) who lost the presidential election with a score so weak (only 300,000 Parisians out of the 10 million voters had voted for it It takes at least 15 to form a group. A cohabitation can be opposing NUPES, the leftist group and Ensemble, the right-centrist group of Emmanuel Macron’s, considering the tight outcomes of the 1st lap of the vote. The National Rally, party of Marine Le Pen (Far Right, RN), can hope to obtain, at the end of this first round, between 20 to 45 seats. As for the far-right candidate, outsider, former journalist who founded his Reconquest party, in April 2021, claiming more than 125,000 members, Eric Zemmour, had won 7% of the votes in the presidential election and pressing 551 candidates in the constituencies and rancid. His party did not win any seats in the National Assembly and Eric Zemmour lost the 4th constituency of Var, Saint Tropez where he stood for legislative elections, ranked third behind Sereine Mauborgne, and Philippe Lottiaux for the National Rally. with a score of 22.8%. In Guadeloupe,(French West Indies), where they voted on Saturday, the Secretary of State for the Sea, Justine Benin (MoDem), is in a favorable ballot against the NUPES candidate, Christian Baptiste.
