In addition, Paul Magnette is announced as candidate Prime Minister in the event of success of his party in the next elections. Asked about La Première, the president of MR Georges-Louis Bouchez believes that “thinking about his personal career now, when you see the state of the country and in particular that of the French-speaking entities, it’s quite irresponsible“. He sees a “fracture line“between the MR who”wants to better reward work and increase the employment rate” and the PS.
With his joke, which relays a cliché about the Walloons, “an insult to French speakers“, Paul Magnette “launched Bart De Wever’s electoral campaign”, according to Georges Louis Bouchez. “At the start, socialism had work at the heart of its project, today that has disappeared and I am sorry to see that it is becoming the party of the siesta and that is very deplorable”.
As for the future of the government coalition, Georges-Louis Bouchez believes that “if everyone respects the government’s agreement, we can work together, but we will not become the same party.”
