Welcome to the latest edition of Grier’s Notes. As a reminder, there is still time to enter the 2024 Grier’s Notes Predictions contest if you haven’t already submitted your predictions. News from around the world President Macon has chosen the 34-year-old Gabriel Attal as France’s new Prime Minister as he seeks to reboot his government. Attal was formerly associated with the Socialist Party but took a hardline on integration as the Minister of Education who championed a ban on headscarves in schools which helped him build appeal with more populist voters. Macron is hoping this broad appeal will help Attal maneuver legislation through the National Assembly where his lack of majority has limited the success of Macron’s second term.
