Macron’s camp said it was decided to keep Bourne on board “to ensure stability and hard work”.
In mid-April, the protest over Macron’s pension reform was in full swing. Then Macron announced that he would make a preliminary assessment of the ambitions of his second and final term in France recess. The head of state had called on his government to make progress in the 100 days before the national holiday on issues such as a labor agreement, control of illegal immigration and an overhaul of the health system.
The reconciliation Macron called for in April was disrupted after the death of 17-year-old police officer Nael. That death sparked large and violent protests in Paris and several other French cities.
In the end, Marcon decided not to address the nation during the national holiday. Despite fears of new riots, the July 14 holiday passed peacefully. The Elysee says: “The goal of the 100 days has been achieved and peace has been restored.” The country is moving forward. The government must act and prepare for the start of the new school year.
“Creator. Award-winning problem solver. Music evangelist. Incurable introvert.”
