But it is a real emotional roller coaster that the LR parliamentarian has faced in recent days. The best re-elected LR deputy in the hemicycle with 72.06% of the votes in the second round, she was hailed on Tuesday as an “excellent vice-president” of the National Assembly by Yaël Braun-Pivet who, from the perch, l was applauded… before being released from this position by the majority the next day. “Warmly applauded then thrown out: it’s the at the same time “, creaks the elected official who will plant his flag on Monday at the top of the collapsed mountain of LR: at 65, the Franc-Comtoise will assume the interim presidency of the party, until the Congress of the fall, in place of the resigning Christian Jacob.
