The unions believe that the mobilization was reinforced on May 1. They decided on the 14th day of demonstrations and actions, on June 6th. This date was not chosen at random.
It is now the continuation of the social movement that is at stake, with four appointments by the summer. On May 3, the Constitutional Council will rule on the second request for a shared initiative referendum. But even if the Elders validate, the referendum has little chance of succeeding. “Take the number of signatures, 4.9 million. In Italy it’s 500,000. The gauge is too high to have a RIP”, believes Benjamin Morel, lecturer in public law at Paris-II. Then, the week of May 8 or 15, negotiations must resume between Elisabeth Borne and the unions.
A strategic date
June 6 will be the new highlight in the street for the inter-union. The date is strategic, because on June 8, the deputies will have to vote for or against the bill brought by the Liot group, which proposes to repeal the pension reform by returning the legal age of departure to 62 years. But if the project goes to the National Assembly, it is almost impossible for it to be voted on in the Senate, dominated by the right.
