New government: why the mayor of Toulouse, Jean-Luc Moudenc, did not apply
The mayor of Toulouse, Jean-Luc Moudenc, co-signed a forum this Sunday calling on LR deputies to find convergence with the presidential majority to avoid blockage in the National Assembly. A call from the foot to enter government? Not at all and he explains why.
Twenty elected LRs from local authorities, including the mayor of Toulouse, Jean-Luc Moudenc, called on the parliamentarians of their political family on Sunday to find convergence with the presidential majority to avoid blockage in the National Assembly.

“An attitude of systematic opposition would complete the ruin of what remains of it to gain. A rallying to treat the happiness of extremes. For us, the interest of France as of our family of thought commands to overcome the divisions and to abandon the sterile postures to work on concrete convergences, by making prevail the superior interest of the country. LR would grow above all to be force of responsible proposals and the presidential majority to accept these on the basis of coherences allowing our country to overcome the challenges that are his,” they write in particular. Before calling “with force and gravity” the LR deputies and the presidential majority to “converge on projects that will move France forward” and thus avoid immobility.

Moudenc: “Make no mistake”
This platform, which intervened a few hours before the cabinet reshuffle, was it a call from the foot of the mayor of Toulouse to obtain a ministry? Not at all according to Jean-Luc Moudenc who did not apply. At least that’s what he implied. The Dispatch : “Make no mistake: our forum does not target the government but is addressed to our friends LR deputies while the week which will open is decisive on the merits. There will be the declaration of general policy of the Prime Minister and, from there, the various groups in the National Assembly will position themselves. It is this key moment that we are aiming for and not the government reshuffle. I am convinced that the integration of this or that signatory of our text within the government would not unblock the situation of absence of majority”.
There will be a personality from Haute-Garonne who enters the government but it is the mayor of Saint-Orens, Dominique Faure.
