The left and the far right came together to overthrow the shortest-serving prime minister in the French Fifth Republic.
The article from *Le Monde* titled "Barnier's Downfall: The Day of a Foregone Failure" discusses the political decline of Michel Barnier, a prominent French politician known for his role as the EU's chief Brexit negotiator. The piece details how Barnier, once seen as a potential presidential candidate for the French right, faced a significant setback in his political career. It describes the events leading up to his failure to secure the nomination for the 2022 French presidential election, highlighting internal party strife, strategic missteps, and a lack of broad voter appeal. The narrative captures the atmosphere of inevitability surrounding his political demise, with insights into his campaign's miscalculations, the shifting dynamics within the French political landscape, and the broader implications for the conservative movement in France. The article paints a picture of a seasoned politician whose time in the spotlight was overshadowed by newer, more dynamic political figures and changing voter priorities.
