François Ruffin wanted to be “solemn” on BFMTV-RMC this Tuesday. The member of the La France insoumise (LFI) group in the National Assembly returned to the pension reform desired by the government. “I am concerned about the unity of the nation”, he began, to better explain the succession of crises experienced by the French.
The chosen one evokes the whirlwind of “Covid with tired, exhausted people”, the “Ukrainian war that drives up prices” and the “elections this spring with a president elected without illusion, without impetus”.
François Ruffin also lashes out at “a majority of stumbling blocks in the National Assembly that is doing its best to get its texts approved.” A reference to the fact that the presidential field does not have the necessary number of deputies to approve bills on their own.
“Social, democratic and even ecological concern”
Finally, François Ruffin ends with a figure: “8 out of 10 French people oppose this pension reform,” he said before deploring an executive who “will launch a measure against the people and without the people.”
For the deputy, “this way of carrying out this pension reform […] It is a social, democratic and even ecological concern”.
“Should we be locked up like a hamster in its cage to produce more, work more, consume more?” he asks.
Very active on the subject, the deputy for the Somme has published a book entitled “Time to learn to live” to return in particular to “the battle for pensions”. On the BFMTV and RMC microphone, he said he was in favor of “a retirement starting at age 60 with 40 annuities.
