French President Emmanuel Macron ruled out naming a prime minister from the leftist New Popular Front alliance and will instead start a new round of consultations on Tuesday with parties to try to form a new government, Macron's office said.
The left also doesn’t want to work with his party. Both Mélenchon and Castes have made it clear it would be their program and only their program and that they would not ally with the presidential party which they blame for everything wrong.
I’d also not be looking to work closely with a center block that will water down your plans, take credit for all things good while you see your most important points being stonewalled. Both the right and left can just rail against this and next elections the polarization will just be bigger.
Sure but if you don’t have a majority and need to ally with someone else you have to water down your plans, there’s no other way around it. Neither sides want to partner, but the center is probably more comfortable having no real government and keeping the status quo for the next two years than the left is.

Macron is not a centrist.
