"The mayors are fed up, they are now suffering from energy bill increases (...) and have less endowments
", justified Fabien Roussel, alerting to the
"anger"
of these local elected officials.
As in Paris, some city councilors
“will place banners”
on the pediments of their town halls against the pension reform.
“Mayors are the best defenders of our public services,”
he continued.
But the call of the deputy of the North does not stop at the town halls.
Fabien Roussel thus invited the
"craftsmen, traders and SMEs
who do not find themselves in the reform (...) to close the curtain"
.
With the sole objective
of "putting France in strike mode"
and
"shut down the economy"
all day on January 31.
