Unanimity against him. La Nupes barely savors the departure of Fabien Roussel this Saturday at the festival of Humanity, which infuriates beyond the rebellious France with whom relations remain very tense.
“In my France, there is no more unemployment, there are no more unemployment benefits, there is no more RSA, there is no more replacement income that allows unemployment to be fueled,” the head of the Communist Party announced this Saturday.
“Means nothing” for Mélenchon
The day before, the former presidential candidate had already made similar statements in front of journalists, judging that “the left (must) defend work and not be the left of allowances and social minimums.”
In the dugouts of the rebels, these exits go wrong.
Interviewed by the journalists of Humanity for his great return to this meeting of the left, after 6 years of absence, Jean-Luc Mélenchon did not hesitate to say so.
“Social contributions are not a favor, it is your own salary. To say that the system is generous does not mean anything”, scolded the capo of rebellious France.
In his presidential program, Jean-Luc Mélenchon proposed a job guarantee, paid in Smic by the State in the ecological or social transition sectors for any long-term voluntary unemployed.
“It is not the fight of the left”, assures Ruffin
François Ruffin – who himself criticized the strategy of his political group, accusing it of concentrating on the suburbs to the detriment of the countryside – also distanced himself from the communist.
“Opposing ‘the France that works’ to ‘the France of allocations’ is not the fight of the left, these are not my words. Those assisted are up there, filled with billions by Macron: it is our daily policy” . work to unite below against above”, reacted the ex-journalist of Fakir on his Twitter account.
“Fabien, take care of retirees”, launches Karima Delli
If the rebels remain bitter more than 4 months before the first round of the presidential elections, seeing Fabien Roussel and his score of 2.3% who would have prevented Jean-Luc Mélenchon from accessing the second round, the rest of the Nupes n is not more tender.
“Fabien, take care of retirees, those who get rich while they sleep, and please stop hitting those who try to get out of there,” judged Karima Delli, an environmentalist MEP, evoking the case of her parents in your Twitter account.
Sandrine Rousseau also expressed her frank disagreement with the social networkwishing in a humorous tone “long live benefits, fundamental social rights”.
An unemployment insurance reform in the government pipes
If on the side of the socialists the reactions were discreet, we judge the words of the communist very poorly chosen.
“We can discuss many things and perhaps the unemployment benefits will be distributed unevenly. We can talk about it, but we cannot oppose national solidarity and work”, analyzes a socialist deputy on BFMTV.com.
The pace is even worse since the government presented an unemployment insurance reform to the Council of Ministers on Wednesday. It intends to vary the conditions of compensation of the unemployed depending on the economic situation. Present at the festival of Humanity, Gabriel Attal has also “assented” to the words of Fabien Roussel.
