Following the announcement of the 2026 budget by François Bayrou, the French Minister of Budget, opposition parties including the National Rally (RN) and La France Insoumise (LFI) have threatened to censure him. Bayrou's plan aims to reduce the public deficit to 4.6% in 2026. The RN, represented by deputies such as Sébastien Chenu and Jean-Philippe Tanguy, has explicitly warned of a censure motion if Bayrou pursues policies perceived as financially burdensome to French citizens. The opposition's stance reflects broad resistance to the proposed budget measures, with calls to prevent what they describe as a harmful fiscal approach.
