Analysts say domestic budget strife drives discontent.

Overview

  • France’s monthly political barometer shows just 25% hold a positive view of Emmanuel Macron, matching October’s lowest level since 2017.
  • Rassemblement National chief Jordan Bardella leads politician rankings at 42%, followed by Marine Le Pen at 39% and LR leader Bruno Retailleau at 30%.
  • Only 37% of respondents plan to watch Macron’s New Year’s Eve address, down from 40% last year and 43% two years ago.
  • The online survey of 1,099 people was conducted Dec. 22–23 and reports a margin of error between 1.4 and 3.1 percentage points.
  • Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu’s approval stands at 34%, and pollster Jean‑Daniel Levy says judgments of Macron reflect domestic performance more than foreign policy.
