Parisians are voicing skepticism about France’s newly formed government, unveiled by Prime Minister Francois Bayrou, as concerns grow over its ability to address the nation’s mounting political and economic challenges.
Parisians have expressed low expectations for France's newly appointed government, describing it as out of touch with the broader population.
Announced by Prime Minister Francois Bayrou, the new cabinet features experienced ministers and senior civil servants tasked with navigating a challenging political and economic climate.
Among the appointees are former Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin, now heading the justice ministry, and former Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne, who has been entrusted with education. Eric Lombard, head of the government's investment arm, has been named finance minister alongside Amélie de Montchalin as budget minister.
The government faces immediate pressure to address the 2025 budget after parliamentary resistance toppled Bayrou's predecessor, Michel Barnier. With the deficit expected to exceed 6% of GDP by year’s end, many question whether the new team can deliver the reforms needed to stabilize the economy.
Parisians outside Saint Lazare station voiced their doubts. Patricia Carotine remarked, "I don’t expect anything from it... unless there’s a magic wand, which I don’t think exists." Charles Neker criticized the lack of political diversity, saying, "It’s always the Macronists and Republicans... It’s not just the Left or the Right; it’s all the French people."
As Bayrou’s team begins its work, public sentiment remains tepid, with uncertainty lingering over whether the new government can overcome the obstacles ahead.
