As storms know how to announce themselves, the atmosphere became more and more heavy, electric, at the National Assembly this Monday, December 11 afternoon. Until lightning struck the government: by 270 votes to 265, the deputies adopted a motion for prior rejection of the immigration bill, with the votes of the left, the LR and the RN. “It’s a failure,” the Minister of the Interior, Gérald Darmanin, could only admit in the evening on TF 1.

The shock is all the more severe for the executive, as he did not see it coming. Faced with the deputies with whom he had lunch on Monday noon, Darmanin estimated that the motion would not pass. At the beginning of the afternoon, the secretary general of the Élysée, Alexis Kohler, also displayed his confidence in front of the executives of the majority: during their meeting, the discussion concerns… the advisability of organizing or not a solemn vote at the end of the debates! As a result, a form of astonishment initially seized the top of the State. And now ? The question still came up empty on Monday evening.
