Give us a call, Michel Barnier

It looks like Michel Barnier's governing now - Macron's ministers are complaining that they can't even get a call with him or anybody close to him to approve their moves because...they don't have his phone number. On the left, François Ruffin gets booed at the Fête de « L’Humanité » as he openly goes on the warpath against Jean-Luc Mélenchon and the LFI's strategy of trying to get votes from people who support the left. It's autumn 3 years out and the presidential race is here.
