It's the return of Mayor's Day.
Or rather half a day.
This Tuesday, the town hall of L'Union, a town in the northeast of Toulouse will be closed from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and all agents will benefit from a half-day off, without deduction of wages.
Like Anne Hidalgo in Paris, Marc Péré has decided to support the social movement against the pension reform by allowing the territorial officials of his commune to be able to go to the Toulouse demonstration which will leave at 10 a.m. from Saint-Cyprien.
“Through this measure, the elected representatives of the majority group show their total support for the day of action organized by the unions.
The two-year decline in the legal retirement age is a terrible violence against millions of employees and public service agents, ”argues the various left city councilor.
The mayor of L'Union castigates in a press release the choice of the government, arguing that there were "other avenues, in particular a better sharing of wealth".
“To find the 12 billion euros that would be missing to balance the pension system, the government could for example give up the abandonment of the contribution on the added value of companies (CVAE), a tax on companies bringing in 18 billion euros. annual euros, which the State has offered to companies, on the altar of "competitiveness".
The state could also make use of the super profits or the arrogant growth of the wealth of French billionaires, ”argues the one who is also a member of the opposition in the metropolis of Toulouse.
