It's the seventh 49.3 for Elisabeth Borne.

The Prime Minister brought out the constitutional weapon on Wednesday, on the Social Security draft budget for 2023, for final reading in the Assembly, the deputies of Nupes responding by announcing a motion of censure.

“A few days before the end of the constitutional deadline, I again regret, as I have already done, that the positions have remained frozen.

And that despite the progress, each opposition group has reaffirmed its desire to oppose the bill, whatever it contains, whatever it is, ”declared the Prime Minister from the Assembly gallery.

"The text has not changed a comma from the version that was adopted last Monday", after the rejection of a previous motion of censure, she also said.

Meanwhile the Senate rejected its examination, accusing the government of having "swept away" its "emblematic" amendments on the retirement age.

“decisive measures”

On Wednesday, the government and the majority again defended preventive measures (meeting at the key ages of life), the creation of a 4th year of internship in general medicine "as a priority" in medical deserts, but also a text of “budgetary responsibility”.

“Our fellow citizens will retain decisive measures and not the adventures of a sad spectacle of political censure motions”, also launched the rapporteur Stéphanie Rist (Renaissance).

Despite these declarations, the deputies of the Nupes will table a new motion of censure, this time common.

The RN group, however, does not plan to file one, according to a source within the group.

“We will not have talked about anything,” lamented LFI deputy Damien Maudet.

"Simulated Compromise"

"You simulated the compromise like a football player simulates in the penalty area to obtain a penalty", denounced the socialist Jérôme Guedj.

“Nothing about psychiatry.

Nothing about environmental health.

You learn nothing from the Covid crisis, ”said ecologist Marie-Charlotte Garin.

All in irony, the communist Pierre Dharréville took the floor to ask “pardon”: “Pardon for having voted and voted on amendments.

I have largely exceeded my mandate as a deputy”.

"You do not hear anything in what your parliamentarians say to you in the Assembly or in the Senate", lambasted MP RN Joëlle Mélin, MP LR Yannick Neuder deploring "thousands of amendments thrown in the trash".

The motion could be discussed this weekend or early next week.

Its probable rejection would close the examination of the Social Security draft budget for 2023, which would then be considered as definitively adopted.

Opposed to the draft budget, the unions of liberal doctors and biologists are calling for the closing of practices and laboratories on Thursday and Friday.
