Has he seen the way to win votes?
Especially away from Marine?

Michel Barnier says France should halt non-EU migration for five years

The 70-year-old Brexit negotiator, who is tipped to run against Macron in next year's election, said the 'moratorium' would allow France to 'evaluate' its long-term immigration policy.

He seems well respected in France and seen as a very smart negotiator/manipulator. Time will tell.

Whatever keeps Marine at bay

 

[Ashtree]

He would make a very good President for the UK. He could directly renegotiate the withdrawal agreement with himself.

The Frog electorate will see right through his attempted deception.
Even with the immigrants who have lowered their average IQ.

You plainly don’t like him; I think he’s ok; doesn’t matter a jot, neither of us have a vote.
Anyone who keeps out LP is great, this brexcrap has spoiled things enough here for brits without her adding to it

I did like him initially , he said the right things but last 12 months he's just been grandstanding to get re elected .
Watch the vid on the OP , Barnier quite envious of the UK US entrepreneurial spirit , he's growing on me .

 

[czechmate]

I think he’s ok. What party would he stand with? Yet another new one?

 

[czechmate]

The reality since the new year is actually worse than the fears. For lots of brits the stress is awful, particularly those that don’t work. Well, the lazy gits they can f**k odd back anyway but those that retired
Simple eg sending a little engine size parcel was 100, now it’s 700. Well, we have a business and can pay the difference, these kind of costs are crippling many
I know the likes of @caveman will say “good, serves I’m right”, but I think it’s sad

Et si, à côté des Xavier Bertrand, Valérie Pécresse et Bruno Retailleau, Les Républicains devaient compter sur Michel Barnier pour 2022 ? Fort de son succès en tant que négociateur de l’Union européenne pour le Brexit, l’ancien ministre (Environnement, Agriculture, Affaires européennes et Affaires étrangères) souhaite s’investir au sein de son parti en vue de la future élection présidentielle.

"J’ai envie de retrouver les Français", "je vais utiliser l’énergie qui reste la mienne pour travailler pour mon pays", déclarait-il fin décembre 2020 sur franceinfo. "Je vais essayer d’apporter ma pierre dans ma famille politique qui a aussi besoin d’être reconstruite, au débat politique français", ajoutait-il. Il réaffirme ses ambitions, lundi 1er février dans Le Parisien. "Tant que j’ai de l’énergie, que je garde la même capacité d’enthousiasme et d’indignation, je voudrai être utile à mon pays", indique celui qui s’apprête à déposer les statuts d’un nouveau micro-parti et cherche des bureaux dans la capitale

You're right.
