Did you miss the news this early morning? We’ve put together a recap to help you see things more clearly.
Emmanuel Macron’s second five-year term will really go into work mode this Monday. The team of the new Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne must indeed tread the gravel of the Elysée shortly before 10 a.m. for a Council of Ministers. On the menu of the day, the main priorities set out by the president: school, health, ecological transition but also the fight against inflation. Problem however for the new team, the accusations of rape against Damien Abad come to obscure this return. The controversy has swelled since Saturday and it could sound like the first false note of the new executive.
France is still hot. Heat records for the month of May continue to fall. They were thus recorded on Sunday, in particular in the Massif Central and the Alps, according to provisional figures from Météo-France. At the same time, a major part of France has been placed under storm vigilance, including 21 departments in orange vigilance (a quadrilateral ranging from Landes to the Rhône in the south and from Deux-Sèvres to Cher in the north), and 66 others in yellow, according to a bulletin dating from 4.07 p.m. Sunday and valid until 4 p.m. Monday.
Grégoire Barrère is a credit to French tennis, and this year he is the only one to do so at Roland-Garros. The Frenchman, 209th in the world, qualified for the second round on Sunday by eliminating the Japanese Taro Daniel, 105th, in 5 sets (3-6, 6-2, 0-6, 6-3, 6-4) . But as feared, the 2022 edition starts with difficulty for the Blues: of the six French people in the running on Sunday on the first day of Roland-Garros, he is therefore the only one to climb to the second round. Quentin Halys, Clara Burel, Harmony Tan, Kristina Mladenovic and Carole Monnet came out as soon as they entered. To continue his journey, Barrère will have to beat the American John Isner on Wednesday.
