Against a backdrop of government instability, following the resignation and renomination of Sébastien Lecornu, Ifop, in partnership with JDD, publishes the results for October of its barometer on the popularity of the Prime Minister and the President of the Republic.

In detail, he appears particularly unpopular among the unemployed (89%, +8 points), supporters of the Rassemblement national (97%, +2 points) and sympathizers of La France insoumise (91%, +9 points). Among his 2022 voters, less than half are satisfied with his actions (46%).
