Emmanuel Macro's government has survived a no-confidence motion at the National Assembly meeting Monday. The Macron government had to vote on it after the Lower Chamber passed a bill to change the pension system in the country.
The motion of no-confidence initiated by a small centre group and backed by a left-wing coalition received 278 votes, out of the 287 total needed to pass.
Another motion for the initiative is expected to receive less support from other groups of French lawmakers. If both motions fail, the bill will be named past.
We remember that President Emmanuel Macron ordered the use of special constitutional competencies to pass the pension-growing bill from 62 to 64, without allowing lawmakers to vote.
