“The extremes and their allies compete with unrealistic and dangerous promises,” says Élisabeth Borne

“On the left as on the right, you have the extremes and their allies who compete with totally unrealistic and dangerous promises”estimates Tuesday June 18 on France Bleu Normandie the former Prime Minister Élisabeth Borne, candidate for her re-election in the 6th constituency of Calvados for the presidential majority.

The outgoing deputy from Calvados recognizes that there is “impatience among our fellow citizens so that there are results on purchasing power, security, public service, access to care” and she feels that she has “acted and we certainly need to speed up”, “provide concrete answers in our territories”. But for her, her adversaries “promise the moon”.

“On purchasing power: who can believe that we can increase all salaries by 10% as the RN proposes, or that we can increase the minimum wage by 200 euros? Those who promise a 10% increase in salaries , 200 euros more for the minimum wage, retirement at 60, that is to say the National Rally and this pseudo New Popular Front, are lying to the French”tackle Élisabeth Borne.

The programs are, according to her, “unrealistic” and will increase unemployment. “If we ask our craftsmen, our traders, our small businesses if they can assume these wage increases, the answer is no. So that would mean the destruction of jobs, additional unemployment and ultimately taxes. in addition”.

In the event of defeat of the presidential majority, Élisabeth Borne refuses to pronounce in advance. “I don’t put myself in this perspective at all. Between the two blocks that promise the moon, when you promise a dream, it always ends in a nightmare and the first victims are people of modest means and the middle classes”she believes.
