Already 11 days have elapsed since Gerard Collomb, aged 71, the former long term Mayor of Lyon, resigned from his post as Minister of the Interior ! His reason : he wants to prepare his re-election in Lyon as Mayor, for which the Election is scheduled in....2020 !
On the day of his departure, Gerard Collomb highlighted the alarming state of the security in certain localities in France ! (1) In some areas the local climate would soon be comparable with that of a civil war !
Is that not a criticism of the policicies of President Macron, .... but also that of his predecessors ?
Recent Opinion Polls have clearly shown that the popularity of Macron has slumped dramatically ! The fact that he has not been able to find an experienced person, a politician or technician, to replace Collomb as the Minister of the Interior, is now raising even more questions !
BUT, Macron, who described his style as being like that of Jupiter, takes his time. As he has already said, He is the "Maître des Horloges", - "The Master of the timing" !
Is he still credible as being "THE decision maker" ?
