The French Prime Minister Resigns Following Barely Three Weeks Amidst Extensive Criticism of Freshly Appointed Government

France's political turmoil has deepened after the freshly installed PM dramatically resigned within a short time of forming a administration.

Quick Resignation Amid Government Instability

The prime minister was the third PM in a year-long span, as the republic continued to lurch from one political crisis to another. He stepped down hours before his first cabinet meeting on the beginning of the workweek. France's leader accepted his resignation on the start of the day.

Furious Criticism Regarding Fresh Cabinet

Lecornu had faced strong opposition from rival parties when he revealed a recent administration that was mostly identical since last month's ousting of his preceding leader, his predecessor.

The proposed new government was led by President Emmanuel Macron's supporters, leaving the administration largely similar.

Rival Reaction

Political opponents said Lecornu had reversed on the "significant change" with earlier approaches that he had pledged when he took over from the unpopular Bayrou, who was removed on 9 September over a planned spending cuts.

Future Government Course

The question now is whether the head of state will decide to end the current assembly and call another sudden poll.

Marine Le Pen's political ally, the leader of Marine Le Pen's political movement, said: "There cannot be a restoration of calm without a new election and the national assembly being dissolved."

He stated, "It was very clearly the president who chose this government himself. He has misinterpreted of the present conditions we are in."

Vote Demands

The far-right party has pushed for another vote, confident they can increase their seats and presence in the legislature.

The nation has gone through a phase of uncertainty and political crisis since the president called an indecisive sudden poll last year. The legislature remains split between the main groups: the left, the nationalist group and the central bloc, with no definitive control.

Financial Pressure

A financial plan for next year must be agreed within coming days, even though parliamentary groups are at disagreement and Lecornu's tenure ended in barely three weeks.

Opposition Vote

Factions from the progressive side to conservative wing were to hold discussions on the start of the week to decide whether or not to approve to oust France's leader in a parliamentary motion, and it seemed that the administration would collapse before it had even begun operating. Lecornu seemingly decided to leave before he could be removed.

Cabinet Positions

The majority of the key cabinet roles announced on the previous evening remained the unchanged, including the legal affairs head as judicial department head and Rachida Dati as culture minister.

The position of financial affairs leader, which is essential as a fragmented legislature struggles to approve a spending package, went to a Macron ally, a presidential supporter who had previously served as business and power head at the beginning of the president's latest mandate.

Surprise Selection

In a shocking development, a longtime Macron ally, a Macron ally who had served as economic policy head for seven years of his presidency, came back to cabinet as military affairs head. This infuriated politicians across the various parties, who viewed it as a signal that there would be no challenging or alteration of Macron's pro-business stance.
