The leader of deputies LR, Damien Abad, judged Wednesday that for hospitals, "it is not with the book of checks that will solve the problem in depth".

On the eve of a national demonstration for an "emergency plan for the public hospital", the elected Ain said he feared that the government does not provide "answers to the height of the situation", in the face of a need to "flatten out the system that no longer works".

"We live on a daily basis: the absence of general practitioners, the overcrowding of emergencies, the financial crisis in local hospitals, the medical environment in hospital or Ephad suffering," said the new boss of the LR Group of the Assembly, in front of the Association of Parliamentary Journalists.

And to emphasize: "the right must be careful when it says that we must reduce the number of civil servants: I believe that we must preserve the hospital public service".

Can there be a coagulation of movements, with the mobilization on December 5 on pensions? "There is a deep malaise, a crystallization of tensions, is there a convergence? We will see," replies the MP, who observes in society "fractures and fragmentations, territorial, cultural, political, social, economic ".

On the pension reform, "the right should not leave his DNA," warns Mr. Abad, who "see (t) the will of the President of the Republic to always carry our own contradictions".

"The right is on the side of the silent majority, on the side of those who want to reform because there are too many injustices," he said, asking the "truth" to the government, especially on the question of legal retirement age.

"The consultation yes, the pedagogy yes, but at some point it is necessary to take action" on this issue, argues the president of the LR group, observing that since the crisis of "yellow vests", "the capacity of reform is reduced" and "the crystallization of tensions can make that there is a permanent decline".
