Political uncertainty is once again emerging in France, since Prime Minister Francois Bayrou has threatened to use special executive powers to get his budget approved without a parliamentary mood.
The relocation is expected to cause a motion of no confidence that, depending on or political forces to agree across the board, to join forces, could lead to Mr Bayrou's demise.
Tomorrow the parliament will debate the conclusions of a joint parliamentary committee for the state budget before he focuses its attention on the social security budget later in the week.
Speaking with La Tribune Dimanche Media, Mr Bayrou, 73, stated that he was not afraid to use a constitutional tool that is known as Article 49.3, allowing the government to adopt legislation without a voice of the national meeting.
Mr Bayrou said: 'A country like ours cannot stay without a budget.
'Now we have to go straight to adoption. A country like ours cannot be without a budget. The only way to do that is to make the government responsible. '
The Prime Minister warned that opposition parties trying to stop the French budget of 2025 are at risk of creating economic damage to the nation.
When asked about the chance of the controversial movement that resulted in his downfall, Mr Bayrou said he thought the decision would “be rejected by the French people.”

The confirmation of the French Prime Minister that he would use these special powers to force his budget in the midst of a broken national meeting. The House of the Parliament lagged in disorder after a rapid election had not delivered a clear majority in June.
Bayrou was previously appointed by Macron as Minister of Justice in 2017, but he resigned only a few weeks later in the midst of an investigation into the alleged fraudulent employment of his party of parliamentary assistants. He was released from fraud in 2024.
In December, a trust movement caused by budget disputes forced former Prime Minister Michel Barnier to resign, which gave rise to speculation that Mr Bayrou could now follow under similar circumstances.
Mr. Barnier, a former Brexit negotiator of the European Union, became the first French Prime Minister to have been removed since 1962 by a vote without trust. .
President Macron was used to Mr Barnier in September in an attempt to navigate through the impasse.
His appointment decision was confronted with a wave of controversy throughout France. Thousands of left -wing demonstrators entered the streets of Paris, Nantes, Nice and Marseille in protest and accused Macron of a 'denial of democracy'.
Subsequently, the proposed austerity budget – 40 billion euros (£ 33 billion) in the issuing and increasing taxes by 20 billion euros (£ 16.7 billion) – only the division is immersed in the lower house and a dramatic political cause confrontation.
After the mood, the extreme right-wing leader Marine Le Pen described his budget as 'toxic', while the French politician Jean-Luc Mélenchon Barnier's downfall described as 'inevitable'
Mr. Barnier became the first prime minister in France to be removed by a vote without trust since 1962 and the shortest -stiff prime minister, who resigned after three months
Marine Le Pen played an important role in expeling the previous government, but her party has not yet given any voice instructions
In order to seek more stability for his minority government, Mr Bayrou announced in January that he was open to re -negotiating a disputed plan to increase retirement age from 62 to 64.
The revised plans of the government for the budget that are aimed at limiting the deficit of France to 5.4 percent of the gross domestic product this year have also solved the concern of opposition parties.
The mixed committee has maintained an extra tax on large companies and has increased a tax on financial transactions.
Mr Bayrou also kept his involvement in preventing 4,000 jobs from being cut into national education, a move that had previously been considered.
Extreme left party France UnboWed has already announced that it will not show a motion of no confidence that the support of communist and green politicians is expected to receive.
The National Rally Party (RP) by Marine Le Pen has the largest single group in the French house of parliament. She played an important role in expeling the previous government, but her party has not yet given voice instructions.
Jean Philippe Tanguy, a member of parliament for RP, told France 3 on Sunday 3 that he believed that the budget was “not possible for France” and “worse then not a budget.”
The mood of the socialists, who have followed a constructive approach in the past few weeks when negotiating the budget, can therefore be decisive for the future of Mr Bayrou.
However, budget negotiations with the socialists suffered a setback after Mr Bayrou was 'flooded' by immigrants last week by immigrants, a term that is usually associated with the extreme right.
The party has said that they remain against the government, but have promised to work in the interest of the country on budget issues.
In a statement, the party said: 'We have obtained a number of reversations from the government and note that the prime minister's commitments have been honored. However, they are largely insufficient. '
