The leader of the RN deputies Marine Le Pen on Monday called on the opposition to “work together to impose compromises on Emmanuel Macron” on the package of government measures in favor of purchasing power.
I am reaching out to bring down the price of fuel and heating, to increase real wages (…) to save EDF and our energy sovereignty, launched Mrs. Le Pen from the rostrum of the Assembly, at the start of the exchanges on the purchasing power bill.
The boss of the first opposition group criticized the planned measures, which appear unfair, ineffective and already obsolete.
I appeal to the oppositions who can impose alternative measures and I am not reaching out for me but for the French, assured the finalist of the presidential election.
Why do you refuse any measure that would improve wages, any reduction in VAT and even help the working and middle classes or tax the superprofits of crisis and then war profiteers, questioned Ms. Le Pen before several ministers.
It is up to the government to get out of postures and sectarianism, otherwise it will be severely judged by the French, warned the deputy from Pas-de-Calais.
Since the presidential election, what a waste of time for the purchasing power of the French, she lamented, also pinning Emmanuel Macron who, according to her, suffers from a serious form of presidential denial. He still thinks of commanding everything when the people put him in the minority in the National Assembly.
Nobanques: the cheapest offers to control your budget
The French do not want postures, but results, so we will vote for most of the measures proposed, but telling the whole truth, the far-right leader pledged.
The Minister of Economy Bruno Le Maire then launched to him: you are the minority, we are the majority and we are not deaf to cries of distress in the face of inflation.
He particularly attacked the reduction in VAT suggested by the RN group: it is inefficient and it is costly for public finances. The injustice is you, concluded the minister.
