“Yes, who is to the device ?”

“Hello François Bayrou ? – Yes, who is speaking ? – Hello François Bayrou, we are live, we are on Europe 1, it is Cyril Hanouna, we wanted to say that we would be very happy if you were Prime Minister so we hope, we are waiting”, also relays TV Magazine.

“Ah, he hung up”, “That's incredible”, remarks the presenter of “We are walking on our heads” a few seconds later. Before adding, his finger raised: “But we got him!”

“He confused Europe 1 and the Elysée, guys”

“You know why he picked up ? But because he's waiting for the call, guys, are you crazy or what. It's a 01 that's calling, it's incredible. He confused Europe 1 and the Elysée, guys”, ventured Cyril Hanouna, followed by his columnists.

“Cyril, you just gave François Bayrou an emotional lift (…) It's crazy, he thought it was the Elysée”, a columnist on the set confirms him.

It's hard to know what François Bayrou thought on the other side of the line.

In any case, the suspense should soon be over. The appointment of the new Prime Minister is announced for this Thursday, December 12, 2024, after the return from Poland of the President of the Republic Emmanuel Macron.
