"WE WILL PRAY FOR THE CONSTITUTIONAL REVIEW"--------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Are there still stumbling blocks with the Senate that would explain the postponement of this reform? ": This is the question asked to Gérard Larcher on the famous constitutional revision still stalled. "I have the impression like the intentions of prayer in the Catholic Church: we are going to pray for the constitutional revision. It´s like peace, and in the afternoon, the bombers take off. We are available for constitutional review, "he said with humor. "We are available," he said, "on standby." The 30% reduction in the number of parliamentarians certainly did not please the senatorial majority. "We did not imagine that there were more than 20 departments and communities with a single department. "The" proximity "of elected officials to their territories is more relevant than ever. But that is not the only explanation, according to him. "I understand that this is not the real reason for blocking, because nothing would prevent the National Assembly from making a proportional contribution either: it only depends on the National Assembly. " LR, an alternative to LREM and RN, according to Gérard Larcher "I am with the Republicans because I think that we must build - but not simply with the Republicans - with other partners, an alternative to the binary reduction of democracy between La République en Marche and the National Rally" explained the President of the Senate. Asked about the importance of municipal elections for Republicans, Gérard Larcher replied: "Obviously, this is an important election. Even if you don't over-interpret the municipal election. 33,000 municipalities are in another logic “.

INTERIOR MINISTRY CIRCULAR ON POLICY "DOES NOT CONFORM TO DEMOCRATIC VALUES"------------------- Interior Ministry circular on political colors "does not conform to democratic values" The circular in preparation for the Interior Ministry for the municipal elections continues to cause trouble for the High Assembly. This project, much criticized, plans to clarify the political nuances of the candidates only in the municipalities of more than 9000 inhabitants. But that's not all. The text also provides for a new LDVC label, for union lists which have received nomination from several parties (République en Marche, MoDem, etc.). The label in question could even be attached to lists which were not invested by the presidential majority but which received simple support. "We have to be careful [...] We must not distort the municipal election," warned Gérard Larcher, who "solemnly drew the Prime Minister's attention" on this point. "This circular is not in keeping with our democratic values." The President of the Senate requests that the circular be rewritten or examined by the Council of State.
