Well Macron got his majority. Granted, he got it on the back of the worst legislative turnout in the 5th Repubilc, not that that matters in the short term.. So when he guts bargaining and makes the state of emergency the norm, but things don't miraculously get better, where do you see anger turning towards? A reinvigorated far right? An even crustier commie? Or full on US style voter apathy. 22% participation rate, most of it geriatrics.

A week is a long time in politics (in the Era of Trump, a day is a long time in politics) and Macron has five years to make his mark. In five years people will have mostly forgotten what a disappointment the Hollande government was, and may grant a reformed PS a new chance. Or they'll forget about Sarkozy's antics and give LR another chance. Or they may have gotten over their anger at whatever kind of labour market reform Macron cooks up and for want of a decent alternative, reelect him anyway. People reelected Reagan, they releected Thatcher, they reelected Bush; Macron's not actually all that likely to be succeeded by some far left or far right revolutionary.

Toplowtech posted:Megret was one of Lepen lieutenants in the 90s who decided that Jean Marie "déconne" (was bullshitting/loving around) so (can you guess?) he split the party in two. His part of the party went nowhere and Marinne inherited the party later. Should have waited, a split during the inheritance would have hosed everyone a lot more. Mégret was a big deal for a while, he even got referenced in songs by Sniper!

Badger of Basra posted:Do you not have to be a member of the assembly to be a minister? Nope! it's just that by convention ministers who run for a seat and lose are dropped from government, which raises the question of why they're even running since they won't even take their seat while in gov (it's their running mate who will). i guess it gives them a political office to fall back on if they leave the gov. often it creats funny situation though, I remember with delight seeing Alain Juppé lose in Bordeaux in 2007 or Ségoléne Royal lose in the Ile de Ré in 2012, it's the little things. All the Macron ministers won this time though, the only one who came close to losing was Annick Girardin in St Pierre and Miquelon, and even then I don't think the Minister for Overseas would have been a big loss.

So if they leave their minister job do they go take their seat and bump out the person who had it in the mean time? Must suck to be that guy.
