Former minister warns of internal conflict

A former minister from President Emmanuel Macron's party has raised concerns about the growing rivalry between Édouard Philippe and Gabriel Attal, calling it a "cannibalization" of the central political bloc. This term suggests that the competition between the two figures is weakening the overall group.

Focus on unity and stability

The minister highlighted the importance of moving past the current political uncertainty. They believe that organizing televised debates among candidates who reject extreme positions could help restore stability and focus within the party.

Candidates must reject extremes

The proposed debates would include only those candidates who are seen as moderate and willing to avoid radical policies. This approach aims to ensure that the party remains centrist and avoids fracturing further.

Televised debates as a solution

The idea of televised debates is intended to provide a platform for candidates to present their views to the public and to encourage a more unified approach to the party's future direction.
