Vice President of the National Assembly, Jordan Bardella, said Wednesday morning that the government would proceed in its pension reform to "adjustments" in form, but that in substance, "nothing will change."
"There is simply a (adjustment) form in relation to the social context but it's a little bit + five minutes more, the hangman. + On the bottom of the reform, the hangman is there: it is working more to win less, "the MEP told Radio Classique, calling for the" withdrawal "of the reform and" not expecting much "modalities presented in a few hours by Prime Minister Edouard Philippe.
The idea of implementation of the reform from the 1975 generation, instead of 1963, was specified at dinner "wedging" Tuesday at the Elysee with tenors of the majority, according to a participant.
"On the merits of the reform nothing will change", "we know that we will have to work more" and "there will be a pivotal age at 64 years," lamented the head of the RN.
Party spokesman and northern MP Sébastien Chenu told franceinfo that the government "seemed to make things worse by recognizing that there will be many losers to this reform".
"If a reform is good, (...) I do not see why we are moving the deadlines," he added about the hypothesis of implementation of the reform from the 1975 generation. If not to try to find agreements with a certain number of unions (...) that they would accept, in exchange for moving the date of entry into application of this reform, they lift the strikes.It is a curtain of smoke is an artifice. "
For the MEP and other leader of the RN Nicolas Bay, who was speaking on France 2, the government "will not back down" because he "wants to impose forced march (his) reform" with a "form of disguised brutality" ".
