MPs' criticism and encouragement after Castex's speech

"C'est hollow", "speech of the chief town of the canton", reproached him for the opposition, while the majority showed him crescendo his support: for an hour, Jean Castex declined his speech on general policy before an Assembly divided between calm, applause and annoyance.

Jean Castex rolled out his program at the head of the government for an hour this Wednesday afternoon in front of the deputies. Security, recovery, ecology, health, territories… The Prime Minister insisted on certain files which are close to his heart. Some MPs reacted hotly.

• Nicolas Dupont-Aignan , MP and President of Debout la France: “Prime Minister Jean Castex has broken open doors! Nice words that will unfortunately not be followed up, because neither he nor Emmanuel Macron dare to attack the causes of the economic crisis and insecurity that threaten the country ”

• Gilbert Collard , RN MEP: "From common sense to the opposite, how to believe it when he declares a just war" to radical Islamism "in front of a Minister of Justice who said:" It is an honor to defend Merah " ! "
• Philippe Gosselin , LR deputy: “We are still hungry. There was not the momentum that we could hope to have and all this seems relatively agreed. I still note a few additions, some catching up with what the President of the Republic did not say yesterday. There is finally a word on the police. Finally a word on incivility ”.
• André Chassaigne , PCF deputy: “The feeling that today we have a Parliament which is humiliated and which is of little use. We don't touch the system. (…) Today, poorly, it is the simple extension of the policy conducted for several years, it is astounding poverty ”
• Marie-Christine Verdier-Jouclas , LREM MP: “He insisted a lot on the social partners, he is a man of social dialogue. I liked his words about stewardship that never followed. This is what we are told on the ground. He can be the man for the job, he is at the same time a man of the countryside, of the territory and a senior civil servant. In his recovery plan, there were the three hats, economy, ecology and social ”.
• LFI MP Adrien Quatennens got annoyed on Twitter: “In ten years, dividends have increased by 70%, the minimum wage by only 12%. Castex wants to "invite" companies to moderate dividends. Is he going to give them an invitation? And it is the same Castex who speaks of "reign of impotence". The era of drafts! "

In 10 years, dividends have increased by 70%, the minimum wage by only 12%. #Castex wants to "invite" companies to moderate dividends. Is he going to give them an invitation? And it is the same Castex who speaks of "reign of impotence". The era of drafts!
