A reward for that which is considered “rising star” of the government, fully in line with the expectations of Prime Minister Manuel Valls, who wants a team that “following [his] direction.” Barely in office, she will be tasked to support the school year, marked this year by extending to all municipalities in the controversial reform school timetables.

THEY COME OUT

Arnaud Montebourg

A regular flashes of brilliance, the candidate for the Socialist primary in 2011 had no idea that his last outing was going to cause such a storm. Became Minister of Productive Recovery under Ayrault, the former deputy of Saone-et-Loire had already raised tensions by attacking directly to the Prime Minister, particular about that Florange Montebourg wanted to nationalize “You direct the France as the City Council of Nantes”, had he said. It happened. But this time, Valls said stop. At Bercy, he left his seafaring Armor-Lux, slipped to promote Made in France. The bard of démondialisatio n, figure the left of the party, has held just five months before popping the Valls government.



Benoît Hamon

It will probably remain the only minister of Education in history to have made no school year. Otherwise, Benoît Hamon, rue de Grenelle arrived there only five months, especially on market broken his predecessor Vincent Peillon. Reform school timetables and ABCD of equality, two flagship sites Peillon, have been pursued, but “relaxed” by Hamon to appease the discontent. For the sake of consensus without doubt dictated by the presidential election of 2017 by temperament. Hamon leave because the image of a camera man of the PS, which, although quite unworthy, has not shown a great appetite for “Educ nat” and its complex lineaments.



Aurelie Filippetti

In the footsteps of Montebourg, Aurélie Filippetti it also decided to “take back his freedom” to defend an alternative economic policy. “Minister of Culture since 2012, she managed sensitively budget cuts in his department by burying large sites, supporting the presence of women and generational change at the head of cultural institutions, giving priority to the creation and live performance (at the expense of the portfolio) and by large institutions (Louvre) contribution to the benefit of small (companies, musical ensembles. ..). It also buried the Hadopi law. But she found herself trapped in the contradictions in the record of the entertainment industry, forced to defend an agreement with which she disagreed.

Frédéric Cuvillier

The Secretary of State for Transport of the Sea and Fisheries said in a statement that the new government would be without him. The now former minister was offered by the prime minister to be reappointed as he writes functions, but the mayor of Boulogne-sur-Mer believes “does not have the capacity for action and autonomy necessary for the success of a coherent policy. ” His term was marked by the adoption of the railway reform, the three-week strike of railway workers in June, and a hazardous crisis management of the environmental tax. In his honor: i l is the sitting prime minister to have celebrated a marriage between two persons of the same sex as a municipal councilor in Boulogne-sur-Mer
