The rally on the left is looming more and more.

The leadership of the Socialist Party subscribes to the proposals of the program of La France insoumise, in a document made public on Friday.

In this four-page text, the Socialists, who began discussions on Wednesday with LFI with a view to an agreement in the legislative elections, present their "answers" to the "twelve markers" discussed by the formation of Jean-Luc Mélenchon.

Among them: Increase in the minimum wage to 1,400 euros net per month, retirement at 60, ecological planning, Sixth Republic, but also non-compliance with “certain European rules”.

The PS also makes additional proposals "in faithfulness to our fundamentals and our priorities, by valuing convergences and without hiding differences", writes the leadership of the left party.

Disagreement on the questions of the European

Regarding the “disobedience to the European treaties”, which LFI wishes, the Socialists say they are “deeply attached to the European construction”, and “will refuse (t) to endanger the European construction”.

But they believe that "the implementation of the program that we are building will necessarily lead to tensions, to finding contradictions, and not to respect certain rules".

"We will be neither the first nor the last to do so, in France as in Europe", they justify, evoking the "need for a break in the liberal course of European construction, for a new project at the service of ecological and social transformation”.

Opposed to the stability pact, in agreement with retirement at 60

"We will oppose, for example, the return of the stability pact, consider that the objective of sovereignty for France and the European Union in many areas makes it necessary to derogate from the current rules of competition and that the conference on the future of the EU must lead to a revision of the Treaties", they continue.

Regarding "the right to retire at age 60", the PS, which until then was not convinced financially, offers "a first step including taking into account long careers and arduous jobs".

It also validates "the repeal of the unemployment insurance reform and the regressive provisions introduced into the labor code by the El Khomri law (of 2016, under François Hollande, editor's note) and the Macron orders", signed in 2017.
