Maud Bregeon, spokesperson for the Renaissance deputies and deputy for Hauts de Seine, was the guest of La Grande interview Europe 1-CNews on Wednesday.
The government is looking for savings after the unprecedented slippage in France's public deficit, which reached 5.5% of GDP in 2023, according to INSEE, or 15.8 billion euros more than what the government had planned. But for Maud Bregeon, spokesperson for the Renaissance deputies and deputy for Hauts de Seine, guest of La Grande interview, the increase in taxes remains “an absolute red line”
The MP claims to be "perfectly in line with Bruno Le Maire", who reaffirmed his objective of reducing debt and excludes increasing taxes. The Minister of the Economy has been repeating for weeks that the duration of compensation for the unemployed must be reduced, arguing that structural reforms are necessary to achieve full employment.
“We are in the most taxed country of all developed countries. 70% of income tax is paid by 10% of French people. The wealthiest, the largest companies already contribute a lot,” recalled Maud Bregeon at the microphone of Europe 1-CNews.
