“We’re not going to leave him alone”: how Gérald Darmanin put pressure on Michel Barnier on taxes

The temperature rose a few degrees on Thursday morning between Gérald Darmanin and Matignon, before finally dropping after a long interview a few hours later with Michel Barnier on France 2. A look back at an episode that shows how the former Minister of the Interior intends to influence the very political issue of taxes.

Act one: on Thursday morning, the former tenant of Matignon considers “unacceptable” “the budget as it is announced” by Michel Barnier on France Info.

Before launching: “I will not vote for a tax increase”, assuring that the Prime Minister was on the slope “contrary to everything we have done for a very long time”. A stone in the pond barely two days after the first steps of the head of government in front of the deputies.”We will be clear about our red lines. We’ve been saying no to tax increases for days and Barnier is going anyway. We are only repeating what we think, we are not going to leave him alone,” explains a lieutenant of Gérald Darmanin.

“On n’a jamais été élu pour augmenter les impôts”

Après 7 ans de baisse continue d’impôts et confronté à une “dette colossale”, véritable “épée de Damoclès”, Michel Barnier a annoncé mardi dans sa déclaration de politique générale qu’il entendait demander “un effort limité dans le temps” aux très riches et les très grandes entreprisessans préciser de durée ou de montant.
