Stay optimistic. After the heated debates in the National Assembly on the purchasing power bill that began on Monday, Elisabeth Borne wants to stay the course before the executive deputies.
“We are getting into the thick of it,” said the Prime Minister during the traditional meeting of the presidential coalition group, commenting on this long-awaited text, amid record inflation, according to information from BFMTV.
“Finding compromises will be our victory”
Arms passes were very numerous between the government and the insubordinate France but also between the RN and the Nupes, in particular on the advisability of deploying the Macron bond more widely. The rebels would prefer an increase in Smic to 1,500 euros per month.
“Finding compromises will be our victory and the demonstration that we have been able to find ways in this new method,” explained the tenant of Matignon, forced to argue with the opposition before a narrow majority.
The head of government intends to stage her outstretched hand when she did not see the snub of the Covid-19 law coming last week, the text of which has been drafted from its main provision.
The RN and the Nupes do not convince
The Union of the Left and the National Association obviously do not have the same analysis.
“The government, for the moment, yesterday, did not retain any amendment from any opposition force,” said Jean-Philippe Tanguy, RN deputy, this Tuesday morning on RFI.
The same observation of Jérôme Guedj.
“Result of the day: 55 amendments examined, none adopted (apart from 4 editorial amendments of LaREM). It starts badly with the promise of compromise”, judged the elected socialist in his twitter account.
Borne believes in the “spirit of responsibility”
It has to be said that should the bill pass without some of its key devices such as Macron’s bond, Elisabeth Borne will have no problem alleging ill will from opposition groups.
Enough to push the President of the Government to defend the “spirit of responsibility, commitment and solidarity” before the deputies.
Discussions on the bill resume on Tuesday afternoon. If the government expected the debates to be completed by Thursday night, the timetable looks very optimistic. Only one article has been studied, not in its entirety, out of 20.
