The Constitutional Council rejects Richard Ferrand's request to resign
The RN and the UDR filed a motion seeking Richard Ferrand's resignation as president of the Constitutional Council. Florian Philippot denounced a "political circus" surrounding the motion, noting that the RN had enabled his appointment to lead the institution. The Constitutional Council then dismissed the request for the president's resignation. On the same day, public law professor Alexandre Viala criticized in an article in Le Monde the constitutional amendment proposal by Marine Le Pen, in connection with the tensions with the Constitutional Council following the resignation request.

Angle comparison for the whole story
All three sides report the rejection of Richard Ferrand's resignation request, but the left places it within a broader criticism of the RN and Marine Le Pen, the centre focuses on the procedural narrative, and the right emphasizes the rejection and its implications for the RN.
Left
The left highlights tensions between Marine Le Pen/RN and the Constitutional Council, the article by Alexandre Viala criticizing the constitutional amendment proposal, and the fact that the RN had supported Richard Ferrand's election before calling for his resignation. It uses expressions such as "rembarre" or "échoue".
Centre
The centre presents the decision mainly as a procedural dead end: the Council dismisses the request for "official resignation" by the RN and the UDR. It cites the Council's justification that Richard Ferrand "simply described exactly the state of our law".
Right
The right reports the rejection and notes that Richard Ferrand remains in office; Boulevard Voltaire titles that the Council "disavows the RN\). The articles recall the parliamentarians' criticism of Ferrand's stance against a referendum-based constitutional amendment.
