The new head of the Greens, Marine Tondelier, will be on the “street” against the “ideological” reform of pensions, but she fears that the Government wants to “dissuade people from going to demonstrate with strong repression,” she accused this Sunday .
C’est dans la rue que “va se passer le débat”, mais “je pense que le gouvernement va tout faire pour nous dissuader d’aller manifester avec des répressions fortes”, at-elle lanced à France Inter-franceinfo- El mundo .
“I’ll be on the date”
“That is why it is very important to trust the unions. We need them to win in the streets because we will have to mobilize the world of work. The first demonstration must be successful, the world must function, it is mobilizing well. (…) I am waiting for them (the unions) to set the date, I will be there”, stressed the national secretary of the EELV.
An inter-union must meet on Tuesday night, immediately after the presentation of the reform project by Elisabeth Borne.
According to Marine Tondelier, this reform is “ideological” and “anti-social”, at the “service of a favored class”. And “the history of the pension not small below 85% of the Smic, was in the Fillon law of 2003 (…) We are going to return to discuss a measure voted in 2003, that would be the compromise”, she denounced.
For the head of the Greens, the fight against the pension reform may represent a “magnificent opportunity” for the left-wing coalition Nupes (LFI, PS, EELV, PCF): “at work, we will have to experience working together” .
Problem of the “incarnation” in the EELV
Marine Tondelier was also questioned about the state of her party and Yannick Jadot’s score in the last presidential election, 4.63% in the first round last April.
He spoke of a lack of preparation and an “incarnation problem”. “It is not what was expected” and Yannick Jadot, “does not break the sound barrier” in Hénin-Beaumont (Pas-de-Calais), said the leader of the Greens, an elected opposition in this bastion of the extreme right.
“Much of the working classes no longer want” politics. “Faced with that, I have the impression that the candidates that make their way are the ones that have become social phenomena, more political or political,” she said.
“We have to adapt to that”, “we have to question our incarnations”, to avoid “all the people who are on TV for the party living in the (Parisian) triangle Belleville-Bastille-Republic”.
“We have to get people who come from the working classes, from the popular territories, who come from rural areas”, stressed Marine Tondelier.
