>> Six questions on the sale at a loss of fuels wanted by the government
“Serious” compensation expected. Compensation for independent stations must be “seriously, not to please”warned, Monday evening, Francis Pousse, national president of the “Fuel and New Energy Distributors” branch of the Mobilians union, which represents 5,800 service stations excluding supermarkets, on franceinfo. “If we settle for a few cents, it’s not possible”he warned.
Oppositions unfavorable to selling at a loss. The leader of the LR deputies, Olivier Marleix, denounced, Tuesday, on franceinfo a “scribble policy”. The RN group in the Assembly is also not in favor of this measure, according to its vice-president, Sébastien Chenu. For the “rebellious” deputy Eric Coquerel, the measure will cause “a disruption which benefits mass distribution”. Marine Tondelier, national secretary of EELV, calls for “the government taxes people like Total” and finance “fuel checks to those who need them most”.
