Never mind the pot concerts, the boos… The Head of State is giving himself a second chance. Emmanuel Macron continues his journey whether in the region in front of the French or with the unions. On Wednesday, he assured that he would invite the social partners back “during May” and promised, in an interview to the regional newspapers of the Ebra groupthat the compromises found between employers and unions would be “faithfully transcribed” into law.
After the “disagreement on pensions”, Emmanuel Macron wished that the social partners “come back around the table” on the subjects “of the pact of life at work”. “I will let May 1 pass, as they asked me, and I will invite them again during May. My door is open,” he said.
After the express promulgation of the pension reform, the unions had rejected an invitation to a meeting on Tuesday at the Élysée, where the head of state received the only employers’ organizations. The President of the Republic also made “a method commitment” to promise that “what will be built between unions and employers will be faithfully transcribed”. “It’s limitless and without taboos,” he added.
Building “then” and “together” “a social agenda”
Thus the government “will resume the agreement they made on the sharing of value” and “we will then agree on a draft law on full employment”. “A text will be brought before the Assembly” by July 14, “which may include the legislative provisions necessary for the major reform of the vocational high school”, he added. He also proposed to build “then” and “together” “a social agenda and a program on all the major labor issues which will be negotiated until the end of the year”.
On purchasing power, the Head of State acknowledged that “we do not live well in salary levels below 2,000 euros”. “It must be our priority”, especially for “those who are above the Smic” and “who do not have aid” or “those who often have to use their car a lot”.
While the idea of a “democratic crisis” arose in the debate, the head of state warned against “intoxication on the part of the extremes”. “I do not put an equal sign between the two” but the elected LFI and National Rally “are both doing a delegitimization trial, which others in the public debate, resume. It’s dangerous, ”said Emmanuel Macron.
