Whether through a bill like in 2020 or through the Social Security budget, the pension reform will be carried out. After a rocky start to his second term, Emmanuel Macron intends to go back on the offensive by carrying out a whole series of reforms. “A consultation” will take place from September 19, Marlène Schiappa announced on our antenna.
But to the left as well as to the right, the idea of reviewing this fall in the pension reform does not pass.
“It’s crazy,” writes the rebel deputy for the Somme François Ruffin in a post published on Mediapart.
In these times of concern, social, geopolitical, ecological (…) the Head of State is considering his pension reform, a measure that he knows, massively, very massively, unpopular. Seriously, is that his priority?” Picard’s deputy asks.
The pension reform deserves “a real debate”
According to him, promoting the pension reform is “nonsense”, but above all “dangerous”: “Don’t believe that by acting like this, outside of democracy, we don’t sharpen the feeling of injustice a little more, don’t keep resentment underground”.
On the other side of the political spectrum, Aurélien Pradié, candidate for the presidency of the LR, denounces an “unbearable method”. Anyone who wants to turn the page on the right-wing era of Nicolas Sarkozy believes at the BFMTV microphone that pension reform deserves “a real debate.”
“It is a strategic question for the life of the French!” Discussions “can’t be done in a corner of the table,” she argues.
On the side of the unions, Philippe Martínez, head of the CGT, announced two “days of mobilization” for September 22 and 29.
