Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu is revealed to have falsely claimed a master's degree in public law.

Mediapart reported that Lecornu's official biography was altered to reflect "studies in law" instead of a claimed master's, which he never obtained.

Matignon initially denied changes to the biography and later admitted he held a Master 1, a degree level no longer in existence.

Usually after the back, you go to university, study three years L1, L2, L3 to get a License (otherwise you have education credits) and then 2 years (M1, M2) to get a Master, same note for the credits. If you dropped out after M1, you don't have a master and it seems to be illegal according to another post on the French Fediverse.
