53% of French people want the government of Prime Minister Michel Barnier to collapse as they are angry with the draft budget he submitted, according to an Ifop-Fiducial poll on behalf of Sud Radio which was released today.
The poll showed that 67% of respondents are against the Barnier government’s budgetwhich aims to reduce France’s rising public debt with spending cuts and tax increases totaling 60 billion. euro.
33% support the draft budget.
The French government may collapse before Christmas and possibly even next week if far-right and left-wing parties table a no-confidence motion, which Barnier is certain to lose, according to multiple sources.
An Elabe poll for BFM TV released yesterday, Wednesday, showed that 63% of respondents believe that, if the Barnier government collapses, French President Emmanuel Macron will also have to resign.
