PARIS, Oct 6 (Reuters) - France’s new Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu and his government resigned on Monday, hours after Lecornu announced his cabinet line-up, making it the shortest-lived administration in modern French history and deepening the country’s political crisis.
The unexpected resignation came after allies and foes alike threatened to topple the new government, with Lecornu saying that meant he could not do his job. The announcement drove stocks and the euro sharply lower.
Man, I wish it worked this way in the US when I threaten to topple the government!!
The US is self toppling. Give it a another year. Cooking the books doesn’t work when you’re leveraged beyond what you can cook.
How do you have multiple quarterly earnings at -40%+ and still go up!? The stock market is make belief and bullshit that my retirement is tied to it…
Welcome to NASDAQ. Where everything is made up and the points don’t matter. That’s right folks, the points are like TSLA’s earnings, completely meaningless.
The AI bubble is 4x subprime mortgage. I already have the title of the next movie: The Big Shart.
No you don’t. We have been getting the same government again and again, it’s just the prime minister changing. You think we have control but Macron will keep putting the same government body under a different head. This is precisely why Lecornu resigned, he wasn’t satisfied with whom Macron ordered him to chose. The people in the government were all old corrupt cunts that literaly nobody likes
I hate this timeline so much
So basically paving the way for La Pen’s buddies.
This is exactly why they have been trying to keep the current government going. The alternative is le pen and her
crooksbuddiesSo…like literally everywhere else.
The government has been in various stages of collapse ever since the leftist won big and Macron allied with the right to prevent them from taking power.
This is just yet one more item of fallout.
