the government wants a law before the end of winter

Elisabeth Borne announced, Thursday, September 29, a bill on pension reform by the end of winter. A new round of consultation will begin between the government, the social partners and the political groups. Consultation that will take place on the project of candidate Macron. This means postponing the retirement age to 65 in 2031, 64 in 2027. Discussions will also focus on the issue of hardship or minimum retirement at 1,100 euros. The condition is that these discussions lead to something.

Politically, this means that Emmanuel Macron is letting go of the method a little bit. On the other hand, on the bottom he does not give up anything. “We will not back down, what is at stake is the authority of your servant”, would have assured the President of the Republic, according to the words reported by several guests. The Head of State, ostensibly, lets the hypothesis of a dissolution hover. This is a good pressure shot to all members. Not one of them wants to go back to voters today.
