Summary Edouard Philippe Ministers on the departure of the Ministers who remain Emmanuel Macron to the maneuver government Reshuffle List of ministers

This is not the first reshuffle of the era Macron, but this time, it is necessary to expect a change in depth. At the end of the municipal elections, the head of the State will restructure the government team to perform the entry in a new political sequence.

Edouard Philippe will he remain Prime minister ?

This is the first of the questions posed by the redesign is in the offing. Edouard Philippe, can he keep the keys of the prime minister if the head of the State wants to inject a new impetus ?

"If [the president of the Republic] think, after the municipal election, that I must continue my mission at Matignon, I will assume my responsibilities. He knows who I am, what I play, what can I do and what I can't do that. If he thinks someone else is more useful, I will respect his choice on the basis of fairness", he said to Paris and Normandy on the 16th of June, hinting that he could very well, given his profile and what he "can't do", not to be the man of the situation.

all that Remains is Edouard Philippe is currently enjoying a popularity remarkable for a Prime minister and his close relatives suggests that Emmanuel Macron is in their interest to keep it at his side. "The president has need of him. It is reinforced enough to say 'I take the job or I don't take it'. If the president loose in the nature of an object policy beginning to take shape, what is it going to be two years of the presidential election ?", asks a member of the entourage of the Norman with the World.

The latter appears increasingly weakened, and could pay his management the criticism of angry protests against the police violence. The same journal ensures that Franck Riester is very weak and it is likely that Sibeth Ndiaye leaves his position as spokesman for new functions.

What are the ministers that are safe to stay ?

Some ministers are figures of indéboulonnables right arm, as Bruno Le Maire, Jean-Yves Le Drian, Jean-Michel Blanquer, or Olivier Véran. It is likely that Emmanuel Macron confirms their position.
