Olivier Faure, who leads the Socialists within the New Popular Front, said the president’s comments were “unbelievable.” The New Popular Front has 193 out of the 577 seats in the National Assembly, meaning Castets would be vulnerable to a no-confidence motion that would bring down her administration. While the choice of premier is not up to Le Pen, National Rally and its allies have 142 lawmakers, making them a key part of Macron’s political math.
Addressing entrepreneurs at the annual conference of business lobby Medef on Monday, National Assembly President Yael Braun-Pivet said the euro area’s second-biggest economy can’t afford to ignore its public-debt challenges and that it needs stability to preserve the trust of investors. Since the elections in July, France has been governed by a caretaker government that cannot be toppled by the National Assembly, which is divided into roughly three forces: the left, the center and the far-right.
Ryanair Group Chief Executive Michael O'Leary on Tuesday said that Boeing's new management "continue to disappoint" and that deliveries were behind schedule. The Irish airline, one of Boeing's largest customers, said there was a risk it would take delivery of just 20-25 of the 737 MAX aircraft ahead of next summer, rather than the 29 scheduled. "Things are continuing to slip slightly, it's been disappointing," O'Leary told Reuters in an interview.
