Dissolution, one year later: “So, happy?”

How happy he looks in the photos of his arrival at the Cirque d'Hiver in Paris last Saturday, just like "Les Jeunes avec Macron", now "Les Jeunes en marche" who cheered him on and on whom he is counting, he said, in two years, in five years, in ten years...

This week, he'll be in England, receiving a royal welcome. Faced with the political violence of the White House tenant, displaying cordiality with our neighbors may not be pointless. But behind the scenes, with what results? The same as on the international stage, where the president strives to play a leading role?

The same as in France, without a majority, with a government that's on the fly, ministers pulling this way and that? A single figure released Monday should bring him back to more humility. In France, poverty is at its highest in thirty years , with 9.8 million people living below the poverty line in 2023. And it's Le Figaro that headlines "Macron's failed gamble." Happy?
