The slogan "With you", "it will not stop with the vote", assured the president candidate Emmanuel Macron, in a video this Saturday.

If he is re-elected in April, "for the next five years we will preside, govern, act with you" because "the responsibility must be shared in the end", he insisted.

The clip, of about twenty minutes, was posted on the YouTube channel of the official account "With you" and must be broadcast in several regional meetings.

"I want our project to be based on a method involving more of our compatriots, in the long term, including the day after the election, by giving them a place as real actors", pleaded the Head of State.

During the quinquennium which is ending, “we have implemented reforms sometimes with cavalcade, with the hussar.

And our compatriots, even when they believed, wanted to be actors too, wanted to carry out these reforms,” Macron explained.

Referring to "major projects on school, health, institutional reform", he therefore assured that if he was re-elected, "for months, we will lead a new major permanent debate to act".

The candidate president also confirmed that he would further detail his program "next week", promising in particular "great ambitions for our school, our health, the care of dependency and therefore a real project of autonomy which is essential for old age" or "strong measures for ecology, equality between women and men, for inclusion".

Project structured around four “pacts”

In this context, he indicated that his project would be “structured” around four “pacts”: the “European pact, for our protection, our sovereignty”;

“a pact between the generations, from very early childhood to old age”;

“a productive pact because to support our social model (…), we need to be able to work more and produce more”;

and “a republican pact because the unity of the nation also involves the defense of secularism, stronger security and justice, respect for our borders and a project of republican integration”.

Macron has in passing returned to the pension reform, which he intends to carry out "quickly", in particular bringing the legal age of departure, "gradually and in stages to 65".

This reform "will first take into account long careers and difficult careers because you have to be fair, working until age 65 is not the same thing for everyone", he assured.

As for ecology, on this day of March for the climate, he sees in it “an anti-expensive shield”.

Macron thus assured that he wanted to "go further" to allow "the middle classes" to "change vehicles more easily and faster", and thus buy "hybrid or electric vehicles".
