>> Former Prime Minister Jean Castex tipped to take the helm of the RATP

Given the boy’s course, we didn’t necessarily expect him here“, he continues. The High Authority for the transparency of public life (HATVP) issued a favorable opinion on Tuesday. The file of the former Prime Minister must now be validated by the parliamentary committees and then the Council of Ministers.

According to Bertrand Dumont, there is “major construction sites“but the former prime minister’s policy for managing them will be no different from that of former female leaders:”Whether it is Elisabeth Borne, Madame Guillouard (former CEO of the RATP) or Monsieur Castex, unfortunately the policy of privatization and total destruction of the Parisian public transport company will be the same. It’s not going to change much, maybe a little on the form and more. In any case, basically, to the comma, the project will be the same“, he asserts.

The trade unionist is convinced, “Account tenuous the violence with which the projects are passed“, he see “badly Monsieur Castex change his tune on this, especially since the major directives have already been ordered.” According to him, the problem does not come from the person but from the project as such: “It’s not really a question of man, it’s more a question of project. I am not sure that Mr. Castex can rewrite the future project for the RATP. The recovery plan is defined, but if he explains the opposite to us, we can discuss but I don’t really believe in it.“, he concludes.
