François Ruffin is in “deep disagreement” on the government budgets for 2025. The deputy for the Somme, now united with the environmental group after his break with La France insoumise, vilifies on BFMTV-RMC, this Wednesday, November 27, “taxes on electricity, sick people, communities and retirees”.
In more general terms, the elected Somme opposes the philosophy of the executive, believing that it puts the effort in “the little ones.” “We are in a country where work is taxed more than capital,” he laments.
“A right-wing man who becomes more right-wing than himself”
If François Ruffin welcomes Michel Barnier’s attitude in the Assembly, distinguishing it from the “arrogance” of the Macronists, Picard regrets the absence of “commitment” to the left. And he added: “It is clear that he is a right-wing man who leans more to the right than him.” The elected representatives of the RN, “it is to them that it is addressed”, insists François Ruffin.
The putative candidate for the next presidential election would prefer that the Prime Minister build on the numerous measures voted for by the left during the examination of the revenue part of the state budget in first reading in the Assembly. “I think there was a way to not reject all of that completely,” he said.
If he does not mention it directly, his vote in favor of the motion of censure, announced in advance by the left in the case of Michel Barnier’s 49.3, is not in doubt. While the latter joins the alarmist statements of his ministers this Tuesday, evoking a possible “storm”, François Ruffin accuses him of “dramatizing(r) to save his seat.”
“There will not be a closure like in the United States, where suddenly officials will not be paid, where there will be no more money for companies, nor more activity bonuses for households. This is not true (…) There. “There is not going to be a closure of the country’s economy.”
