The main French opposition parties on Monday castigated a speech “disconnected” and “out of reality” from President Emmanuel Macron, who spoke Monday evening for the first time since the promulgation of the very controversial pension reform.
“Completely out of reality, assume the theft of two years of freedom. The pans sound more accurate, ”wrote, in a tweet, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, the leader of insubordinate France (LFI), while pan concerts were organized in front of many town halls in France.
For Marine Le Pen, president of the National Rally (RN) group in the National Assembly, Emmanuel Macron has once more chosen to “turn his back” and ignore “the suffering” of the French, by not pronouncing the “withdrawal of the pension reform or the referendum”.
“This disconnected, solitary and obtuse practice of power announces the continuation of a five-year term of contempt, indifference and brutality from which we will have to get out of the ballot box,” she continued.
“All that for that… Those who boycotted were right: they did not miss anything”, quipped, for her part, Marine Tondelier, national secretary of Europe-Ecology-The Greens (EELV). “No questioning. It’s still crazy! “, she completed.
The spokesperson for the Socialist Party (PS), Pierre Jouvet, slammed “Macron 8 p.m. Nothing. See you on May 1! “.
During his first speech since the promulgation of the much criticized pension reform on the night of Friday to Saturday following the validation of the essentials of the text by the Constitutional Council, Emmanuel Macron defended “necessary changes”, while acknowledging that the text is not “accepted” by the French.
He gave himself “one hundred days” to launch a plan of “appeasement” and “action” by July 14, following the “anger” aroused by the pension reform, instructing the head of government to present “starting next week” a roadmap.
He also announced that he wanted to build a “new work life pact” in the coming weeks and called on employers and unions for a series of negotiations.
The inter-union had already announced at the end of last week that it would not meet the government before the mobilization of May 1, which it wishes to be massive, because it does not intend to consider that the episode of the pension reform is closed.
Since January, hundreds of thousands of French people have marched over several weeks once morest the said reform in demonstrations, sometimes interspersed with clashes and violence, until the last episode last Friday with the validation of the text by the Constitutional Council and its publication in the Official Journal Saturday.
In reaction to the decision of the Elders and the express promulgation of the text by Emmanuel Macron, the CGT called on the French once more for two days of social mobilization once morest the reform, on April 20 and 28. The intersyndicale also called for making May Day “a historic moment of mobilization”.
