Macron validates the organization of a “social conference” after his meeting with the party leaders

Emmanuel Macron “validated” during his meeting with the party leaders the principle of organizing a “social conference” on “careers and branches below the minimum wage”, BFMTV learned this Thursday among the entourage of the head of state, confirming information from the AFP.

A few dozen minutes earlier, the head of the Socialist Party, Olivier Faure, had declared to the press that the Elysée tenant had declared himself willing to work on a “salary conference” demanded by the Nupes.

This is the only proposal from the left “that was not swept away” during the meeting between Emmanuel Macron and the leaders of the political parties, said the head of the PS.

The closed-door discussions in Saint-Denis began on Wednesday at 3:00 p.m. and ended twelve hours later, after 3:00 a.m. on Thursday: very long discussions on the international situation, the institutions and the “cohesion of the nation” after the riots of early summer.

At the end of this summit, Emmanuel Macron said that “he will send in the next few days a letter summarizing the exchanges and the titles of the proposed works, which everyone can modify, to continue” the discussions, depending on their environment.

No immediate referendum

But the form and substance of these “Saint-Denis Meetings” did not convince the left.

“We came, we saw and we were disappointed,” said the head of the environmentalists Marine Tondelier, while Manuel Bompard, coordinator of La France insoumise, dropped next to him after having “the impression of living 12 hours on the planet Mars.” before an interlocutor that he is not “willing to listen” to the proposals of the left.

In addition to the principle of organizing a “social conference” on “careers and branches below the minimum wage”, the entourage of the President of the Republic told BFMTV that Emmanuel Macron has validated the launch of “work on decentralization” and on ” the question of ecological planning”.

On the other hand, there should be no referendum in the coming months. “First they agreed to start working on the referendum,” said this source.
