“Audacity” as Emmanuel Macron insisted during his press conference, or ointment when inflation is eating away at the daily lives of the French? Look no further. For the first measure of his new government, the head of state is keen on his emblem, so it will be audacity. Bruno Le Maire announced Sunday evening on TF1 that the electricity tax would be partially restored on February 1 at 9.8% for households during peak/off-peak hours, and at 8.6% for those who benefit from the tariff. basic. The increase will be staggered from 5% to 8% for businesses.
The measure is too flammable not to have been the subject of a particular choreography. Emmanuel Macron twice kicked in when journalists questioned him last Tuesday. Gabriel Attal prefers to be released before delivering his general policy declaration on January 30. It is therefore up to the Minister of the Economy to announce the bad news and to do so at the dawn of a difficult week in any case. The Constitutional Council must also deliver its conclusions on immigration.
