Barnier has been appointed after Macron repeatedly stalled on appointing a new prime minister.
He's a member of the Sarkozy Gaullist conservative party The Republicans that managed to muster a stunning result of under 7% of votes in the most recent elections.
I don't wanna say I told you so but I did comment "Wer hat uns verraten" about this situation a little while back and whaddaya know - Macron has just had his Paul von Hindenburg moment.
Shit's about to kick off. Let's hope that May 1968 was just the practice run for the French people and this time around they're gonna pull it off.
And his reason not to nominate Castet got leaked: she wanted to get rid of his retirement reform.
He shat on democracy and our political traditions, wiped his ass with the constitution and is making us look at it and smell it.
Fuck him
You should
him.
Send him a strongly worded email? Seems a bit much really.
