Climate, purchasing power, energy crisis, unemployment insurance or even pension reform… Many files await the president and his government who also promise a new method upon returning from vacation. For Jérôme Guedj, PS-Nupes deputy for Essonne, “the problems that existed before the summer remain”.
Will the political return be explosive? The first Council of Ministers will take place on Wednesday and the government will look into several burning issues such as purchasing power, the energy crisis or pension reform. For Jérôme Guedj, PS-Nupes deputy from Essonne, guest of Europe 1 on Monday, “the problems that existed before the summer remain”. “The questions of purchasing power, back to school, rent… All of this has not been settled by the purchasing power law presented as a panacea.”
“Measures that will set fire to the powder”
“The cost of living will remain the primary concern,” he said on Europe 1 Monday. “The government is announcing measures that will themselves set things on fire! When we are told that the three main topics for the start of the school year will be the reform of unemployment insurance, that is to say the compensation conditions for the unemployed, the launch of the pension reform with the maintained objective of retirement at age 65 and a reform to oblige RSA beneficiaries to provide 15 hours of activity and work […] yes, the return to school is potentially explosive.”
