{{French President Francois Hollande has named a new cabinet under PM Manual Valls, dropping ministers who rebelled against austerity cuts.}}<\/p>\n
The first government of Mr Valls, who was appointed less than five months ago, fell on Monday after a row with Economy Minister Arnaud Montebourg.<\/p>\n
Mr Montebourg resigned along with two other ministers from the left.<\/p>\n
He will be replaced by Emmanuel Macron, a former Rothschild banker and ex-presidential economic adviser.<\/p>\n
President Hollande is seeking a coherent line on economic policy after recent criticism from the left wing of his Socialist Party.<\/p>\n
Many see it as his last chance to make a successful presidency, after his recent poll ratings sunk to 17%.<\/p>\n
{Key portfolios unchanged}<\/p>\n
For the first time, a woman – Najat Vallaud-Belkacem – will be put in charge of education, replacing Benoit Hamon who also lost his job.<\/p>\n
Ms Vallaud-Belkacem was minister for women’s rights in the last cabinet.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Fleur Pellerin has been made minister for culture, replacing Aurelie Filippetti who is also out of the government.<\/p>\n
Key ministers in the previous cabinet, like Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius, Defence Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian and Finance Minister Michel Sapin, retain their posts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
