Lhe secretary general of the CGT Sophie Binet still intends to weigh once morest the pension reform. The new leader of the union has chosen to appear alongside the deputies of the independent group Liot. These elected officials wish to propose a law to repeal the pension reform. The filing of this proposal should take place on June 8 at the Palais-Bourbon. The trade unionist and the parliamentary group had an appointment at the National Assembly. Following this interview, Sophie Binet expressed her satisfaction at having participated in “a very fruitful meeting, to end the crisis”.
Repealing the pension reform would “allow us to move on and finally be able to talk regarding the real issues of concern to employees, the increase in wages, the improvement of working conditions, environmental issues”, she said. .

“I solemnly call on all deputies on June 8 to take their responsibilities and vote for this bill,” insisted the union official. “The difference between the deputies, whatever their political colors, and the President of the Republic, is that the deputies, they are not locked up in their palace, they are in contact with the population at a minimum. »
But if the text passed to the Assembly, how to cross the stage of the Senate, where the right supports the reform promulgated in mid-April? “We do things in stages. There, we are on the stage of the National Assembly. Then, we will discuss with the senators. Bruno Retailleau (the boss of the LR senators) is not unaware of the state of anger of the country in the face of this unjust, violent reform, ”replied Ms. Binet.
A hopeless proposition?
At his side, the president of the Liot group Bertrand Pancher underlined the “very serious social and political crisis. We want to come out on top” with this bill, he argued.
His composite group, bringing together centrists, socialist dissidents, Corsican and overseas elected officials, received the day before Laurent Berger, the secretary general of the CFDT.
In addition to the repeal of the postponement of the legal age to 64, the text proposes the meeting of a social conference to review the question of the financing of the pension system.

It was the subject of “first skirmishes” during an office of the Finance Committee on Wednesday, according to Charles de Courson, rapporteur for the bill. “It got hot” on how to assess its financial admissibility.
The macronists criticize Liot for a proposal “which costs 15 billion euros” and whose authors “know full well that even if it were to be adopted, it would not go to the end” of its legislative course.
