Legislative: Emmanuel Macron puts the nerves of his majority on edge

The high walls of the Élysée have this convenience, that they protect from view. The late invitations — SMS sent the same morning — and the ultra-restricted circles, which allow the greatest secrecy. It is therefore in all discretion, that Emmanuel Macron gathered his close guard, this Tuesday, at lunchtime. Around the table, the Prime Minister, Jean Castex, the secretary general of the Élysée, Alexis Kohler, the president of the Assembly, Richard Ferrand, the boss of the LREM group in the Assembly, Christophe Castaner, the general delegate of LREM, Stanislas Guerini, the Minister of Overseas, Sébastien Lecornu, his current and former political advisers, Thierry Solère and Stéphane Séjourné. With à la carte, a very political menu: the future legislative elections, but also the composition of the future government.
