The two men defended the economic program of the New Popular Front, which notably plans to “restore a reinforced wealth solidarity tax (ISF) with a climate component”of “remove the flat tax” and of “reinstate the exit tax”. Criticized for internal disagreements over the costing of the program, Eric Coquerel promised “something homogeneous” by the end of the week. Boos were heard when the elected LFI, outgoing president of the Assembly’s finance committee, made the distinction between “those who produce wealth in this country and those who look above all at stock market prices”.
