The French National Assembly rejects the health pass. Harsh punishment for Macron

The French National Assembly rejected , on Tuesday 11 May, in general amazement, the first article of the bill "Management of the exit from a health crisis" which frames the exit from the state of health emergency and provides in particular for the establishment of a "Health Pass". MoDem MPs, very dissatisfied with the way the debates were going, followed up on their threat to vote against this article if none of their amendments were adopted. Article 1 was rejected with little margin, with 103 votes in favor and 108 against.

"There was no dialogue and listening" on the "red lines" of the text, in the majority, explained Philippe Latombe (MoDem), underlining the unanimity of his group against the article. The government can still ask for a second resolution.

A strong setback for the Castex government, a direct emanation of Macron, which highlights all the political problems of the president. Parliamentary failures are very rare in France, where the majority system guarantees large and armored majorities. This is a bad sign for the president whose disrespectful methods of political forces lead to ever more evident ruptures. All while mounting the protest from the left of the social parties and from the right by the former generals, who just yesterday published a second letter of harsh exhortation.
