The left block didnā€™t censure the last minority centrist block, but thatā€™s a one way street. When the left does not support the next centrists, the centrists will all blame the left for the right and then wonā€™t censure themā€¦unless Macron just continues with an unelected minority block that he controls at the head of parliament.

And this is all after Macron spent all summer saying that NFP would be ok if only it didnā€™t insist on having ministers from LFI, but when LFI said theyā€™d be fine having no ministers, Macron said ā€˜psycheā€™.

sorry but thatā€™s not true, they just didnā€™t have enough votes to make it happen, they tried a few times (and there was one time just after retirement reform where it was pretty close).

And Macron has pretty much always implied since mid-July that he would not give the governement to NFP, LFI or not, only that heā€™d be willing to make a coalition with the more moderates among them (however noone is interested with allying with him as it would be political suicide).
In any case the developments of the last few days are absolutely not surprising and it was pretty clear since shortly after the election that this is how it would go down. The next step however is still unclearā€¦

(I hope none of this reads as me defending Macron btw, Iā€™m sure Iā€™m his strongest hater on this board)

Might be true since this board drove off pyatnitski.

If anyone deserves to have the hammer of the government come down on them itā€™s millionaire car dealership owners, and I feel like they know that.

which is why iā€™ve heard they are pretty big influencers in local politics. the protectionism we give car dealerships in this country is ridiculous. how does the idea that i canā€™t buy a car online direct from the dealership make sense in the year of our lord 2024ā€¦

The writings of the person who killed three 9-year-olds and three adults at a private Christian elementary school in Nashville last year cannot be released to the public, a judge ruled.

Chancery Court Judge Iā€™Ashea Myles found that The Covenant School children and parents hold the copyright to any writings or other works created by shooter Audrey Hale, a former student who was killed by police. As part of the effort to keep the records closed, Haleā€™s parents transferred ownership of Haleā€™s property to the victimsā€™ families, who then argued in court that they should be allowed to determine who has access to them.

Myles recognized that claiming copyright as an exception to the Tennessee Public Records Act was a novel argument that previous courts have not ruled on. In the end, she agreed with the parentsā€™ group, finding that ā€œthe original writings, journals, art, photos and videos created by Hale are subject to an exception to the TPRA created by the federal Copyright Act.ā€

That doesnā€™t seem right

What is the benefit of releasing the writings of multi-murderer again?
