What will happen now that the Constitutional Council has validated the pension reform? After three months of tension, the Prime Minister said on social networks, Friday April 14, that there were no winners or losers.
The hope was slim, yet the disappointment is there. Faced with the decision of the Constitutional Council, Friday, April 14, Lille demonstrators are bitter. “There is a kind of rage and anger that drives us”says a protester. “I am extremely skeptical that we are still in a democracy”, continues a woman. In Marseille (Bouches-du-Rhône), for the demonstrators, the partial validation of the text and the refusal of the referendum of shared initiative do not change anything in the fight to be waged.
The meeting between the president and the unions will not take place
“You have to take it to get up and continue to fight (…)”, thinks a protester. A determination shared in Paris where hundreds of demonstrators are gathered. At their side, the boss of the CGT, Sophie Binet, assures her: the decision of the Council of Elders could give new impetus to the mobilization. The trade unions have made it known that the meeting with the president proposed next Tuesday will not take place.
