Michel Rocard was the Prime Minister of the Fifth Republic who made the most use of the 49.3 article, indeed, he used it 28 times. The controversial article of the Constitution allows the Prime Minister to engage the government's responsibility and adopt a reform without facing the Parliament's vote. For instance, Elisabeth Borne was highly criticized by opposition parties, and by the French, when she used the article in order to pass the pension reform of 2023.
