The First Secretary of the Socialist Party Olivier Faure announced Friday that he was going to propose to his Nupes partners the organization of a referendum of shared initiative on the taxation of superprofits.
We must force the President of the Republic to move towards this taxation of superprofits and I hope that there will be a referendum of shared initiative, explained on RTL the deputy of Seine-et-Marne.
According to him, today there is a need to go very quickly, very far and to ensure that it is first of all those who can who pay for this energy revolution, this climate revolution.
What I will propose to all the parties of the new popular ecological and social union is to propose a referendum of shared initiative at the start of the school year which will allow us to go and solicit the French people to force the government to have a debate on this question, he said.
Majority and right LR had rejected this summer the amendments proposed by Nupes on the subject during the discussion of the purchasing power package in the Assembly and the Senate.
Since 2008, article 11 of the constitution allows the referendum of shared initiative (RIP), the initiative of parliamentarians (at least 1/5) and which must be supported by at least 1/10th of the electorate (4, 7million people).
The procedure has already been initiated to oppose the privatization of Paris airports, but did not succeed for lack of sufficient signatures.

Mr. Faure denounced the real scandal of the 174 billion profits for the CAC 40 in 2020-2021, an absolute record and the record for distribution of dividends, which means that shareholders are better paid while employees are asked to to tighten one’s belt.
It’s not just the left that would be dismissed from a form of radicalism that says so, it’s all the European countries that come there today, it’s the boss of the UN who invites all the countries of the world to tax the companies that take advantage of the crisis, argues the boss of the PS.
The MoDem deputies, who belong to the majority, pleaded in early August for a reflection in the fall on the taxation of the superprofits of companies like TotalEnergies, a question that torments our fellow citizens, referring in particular to a flash mission launched by the Finance Committee.
