Precious photos, a chiseled letter addressed to Emmanuel Macron to demand the withdrawal of the pension reform and finally a cancellation. The Nupes who was going to leave the National Assembly this Tuesday morning to go a few hundred meters on foot to the Élysée Palace to say no to retirement at 64 will not go to the end. With divergent versions on the benches on the left to explain this hiccup.
“With the current environment within the Nupes, we prefer to take the time to discuss together again,” the communist group that launched the initiative this Friday explains seriously to BFMTV.com.
“Less Extravagant Delivering a Letter Through a Door”
The communist deputies had imagined this wandering that would culminate in a rally to reiterate their opposition to the pension reform in the midst of a week of political consultations for Elisabeth Borne. With one objective: images and videos of the 250 left-wing deputies with their scarves in front of the Presidency of the Republic.
But very quickly, the question of the feasibility of the operation arises. Gatherings are prohibited around the Elysée. “Security issues arose,” says Alexis Corbière soberly on our antenna.
It is therefore, ultimately, the option of a walk to deliver a letter to one of Emmanuel Macron’s collaborators who is holding the rope.
“It became a little less extravagant to deliver a letter through a door on the Elysée side,” summarizes one side of the insubordinate France that evacuates the issue from the political context.
Tensions with the communists
“We never had excellent relations with Fabien Roussel. So the question of the atmosphere, I don’t really believe in that …”, explains Mathilde Panot’s entourage again.
It is that the arms passes, common between the head of the communists and rebellious France, are not rare. This Monday, the former presidential candidate judged that “the Nupes exceeded themselves” and called to “speak to the entire left”, even Bernard Cazeneuve, the former prime minister of François Hollande.
if this interview The express It was carried out before the defeat of the rebel Bénédicte Taurine during a partial legislative session this Sunday against a dissident socialist, supported in particular by the anti-Nupes, including the former tenant of Matignon, goes badly.
“barely organized”
On the side of the Socialists, the enthusiasm to participate in the procession to the Elysee was no more lively.
“We never really mentioned this meeting option. It was organized in a hurry. Also, Tuesday morning is an important day for us with group meetings,” advances Arthur Delaporte, the spokesman for the PS in the National Assembly.
Not to mention that the head of the socialist deputies Boris Vallaud and the head of the movement Olivier Faure are heard this Tuesday afternoon by the Constitutional Council to defend the appeal they have filed to censor the reform.
“False information”
But there is no doubt that the communists will back down. The left-wing group even accuses the LFI deputy Antoine Léaument who evokes “the cancellation” of the initiative of disseminating “false information”.
A handful of communists went well this Tuesday morning to meet with Patrick Strzoda, Emmanuel Macron’s chief of staff in an annex to the Elysée, according to information from BFMTV. Far from the very strong sequence that was expected. La France insoumise calls for a demonstration in front of all the prefectures of France.
