Overview

• Speaking on LCI, Marine Le Pen said it would be unreasonable to censure Sébastien Lecornu before hearing his general policy address.
• Left-wing parties plan to file a censure motion on October 1, which could be debated before the prime minister sets out his program.
• Le Pen set a condition of "rupture or censure," saying Lecornu must break fully with the past eight years of policy to avoid being toppled.
• She expressed little confidence in the new government’s prospects and said Emmanuel Macron bears responsibility for the situation.
• Le Pen rejected an electoral "union of the right" but said the RN could seek votes inside the Assembly to convert a strong relative majority into an absolute one.
