Republicans, supporters of ending special regimes "with an exit schedule", focus their attacks on the "failure of the Macron method" and the vagueness of its pension reform project.
"Emmanuel Macron has, in fact, already failed," said the chairman of deputies LR Damien Abad Echoes Tuesday, when the party's strategic committee met.
During this meeting several positions were decided, including aligning the rules of the public on the private and ending the special regimes with "an exit schedule", we learned after the party.
If the demand meets the will displayed by the executive of a universal pension system, LR is skeptical of the real desire to reform Emmanuel Macron.
"At one point he must slice, say exactly what he wants, (...) we do not play with the French in this way," said Monday Eric Worth, calling the government to "finish the work" started by the right on the special diets.
"The social conflict of December 5 is first and foremost an illustration of the failure of the Macron method: speeches, often contradictory announcements and, in the end, a vague project without a guideline that generates anxiety and anxiety", assures are we at LR.
Another position: preserve the purchasing power of retirees by refusing "any increase in contributions or any decline in pensions," says one at LR. "We must play on the legal age, up to 65 years, taking into account the arduousness," said Abad.
LR also wants to guarantee survivor pensions and "defend family policy gains in family and marital rights, which are pillars of our pension system".
"The list of losers is growing (...) How can the government neglect family policy?" wondered Tuesday Bruno Retailleau of passage to the Assembly.
In a study published Tuesday, the Social Protection Institute (IPS) says that the reform desired by Emmanuel Macron will result in "a planned retirement decline for many women." The pro-business think-tank has in this case focused on one of the tracks of the Delevoye report, which remains un-refereed.
The Republicans finally claim, in line with the bill announced by Mr. Retailleau, that "the principle of continuity of public services" is ensured.
