Macron’s Confidence Rating Sinks to 11%, Tying Fifth Republic Low

The slump coincides with rising scores for Sébastien Lecornu alongside Jordan Bardella.

Overview

  • Figaro Magazine’s latest barometer places Emmanuel Macron’s confidence rating at 11%, down five points in a month and matching the record low set by François Hollande in 2016.
  • Support concentrates within his base, with 71% of Renaissance sympathizers expressing confidence, 53% across the broader Ensemble bloc, and just 14% among Les Républicains backers.
  • Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu gains five points to 26% in the same measure, an uptick described as fragile with parliamentary budget debates approaching.
  • Jordan Bardella remains at the top of the leaders’ ranking in the Figaro barometer, adding five points over the month.
  • A separate Ifop/JDD survey published days earlier found only 16% of French people satisfied with Macron, underscoring a broader downturn across polls.
