Unsuccessful motion of no confidence in the French prime minister's government
A motion of no confidence in the French government of Élisabeth Borne was tabled by the left-wing NUPES coalition on 11 July 2022.
The motion was rejected: it received only 146 "yes" votes out of the 289 needed.
Background.
2022 French legislative election.
The presidential majority of Emmanuel Macron failed to gain an absolute majority of seats in the 2022 French legislative election on June 19. It was described as a setback for the ruling Ensemble Citoyens coalition and the government of Élisabeth Borne.
According to French MP Bastien Lachaud, the no-confidence motion ″will clarify things. It concerns the method of refusing to ask for confidence. Any member of Parliament who is aware today that this is a denial of democracy can vote for this motion″.
Result.
The no-confidence motion received 146 "yes" votes out of the 289 needed.
