Ipsos poll shows far-right Rassemblement National leading in public trust for economic management, posing a challenge for the Ensemble centrist alliance’s election campaign

The Financial Times has recently released an Ipsos poll that shows the French people trust the far-right Rassemblement National to manage their economy and finances. This is surprising as the party lacks government experience and has not presented any funded plans for tax cuts and spending. The Ensemble centrist alliance, led by Emmanuel Macron, must now work hard to convince voters of their ability to lead the country effectively on economic matters.

The Ensemble centrist alliance is determined to persuade voters that electing a far-right or left-wing government would have negative consequences for the economy, potentially leading to significant tax increases. With the Rassemblement National leading in public trust for economic management, the alliance must work hard to win over voters with a different vision for the country’s financial future.

The Ipsos poll highlights the complex political landscape in France as voters weigh the pros and cons of each party’s economic policies and track record. The results indicate a significant challenge for the Ensemble centrist alliance as they strive to secure support and convince voters of their ability to lead effectively on economic matters. However, with determination and careful messaging, they may still be able to overcome this obstacle and emerge victorious in June 30th’s elections.
