Impeachment proceedings have officially been opened against Emmanuel Macron - and it looks like they’ll pass the National Assembly’s political bureau next. After that, a debate in the commission on constitutional law. The Socialist Party says they’ll vote the resolution, backed by La France Insoumise, through the Assembly’s political bureau but that they don’t support the process, which is “doomed to fail.”

Michel Barnier has pushed back the date when the budget will be presented, along with his political agenda, to October 9th. It was supposed to happen on the 1st of the month. Meanwhile, the LFI president of the Finance Commission Eric Coquerel hasn’t received all the documents he needs yet from the Economy ministry.

And in the EU, Thierry Breton resigns from a role on the EU commission.

Thierry Solère, the man who organized dinners between the National Rally and Macron’s camp, is back in the news. He reportedly, and not unpredictably, was the guy who negotiated RN’s tacit agreement with Macron to put Michel Barnier in the driving seat as Prime Minister.

And the Finance Commission president Éric Coquerel, and LFI deputy, still hasn’t received key documents from the Economy and Finance Ministry about the 2025 budget. If he doesn’t get them by the end of the day on Monday, he says he’s going to have to head over to the Prime Minister’s office to pry them out in person.

It looks like Michel Barnier's governing now - Macron's ministers are complaining that they can't even get a call with him or anybody close to him to approve their moves because...they don't have his phone number.

On the left, François Ruffin gets booed at the Fête de « L’Humanité » as he openly goes on the warpath against Jean-Luc Mélenchon and the LFI's strategy of trying to get votes from people who support the left.

It's autumn 3 years out and the presidential race is here.

Éric Ciotti says France should be governed from the right - and he thinks that Michel Barnier is just Macronism with another name.

Plus, when will the next presidential election be? The question is on everybody's lips, and nobody's ruling out Macron resigning. Could it happen?
