On the eve of the examination of the pension reform project in public session, some right-wing voices warn the Prime Minister, Elisabeth Borne.
Thus Éric Ciotti who, while reaffirming in
Le Parisien
the “
necessity
” of a pension reform, believes that “
additional progress remains to be obtained, essential for the balance and justice of the text
”.
The president of the Les Républicains party points in particular to the subject of “
long careers
”.
“
We have indicated that those who join this framework, having started before the age of 21, will be able to retire after 43 annuities, before the legal retirement age
”, explains Éric Ciotti.
“
That's why I went to see the Prime Minister with the president of the LR group, Olivier Marleix, on Wednesday.
According to him, this “
essential point
”, if guaranteed by the government, “will make it possible to win a very large majority in the LR group”.
And to conclude: “
If Élisabeth Borne listens to our proposals, 49.3 will not be necessary.

In the same way, warns the deputy of Lot, "
if this measure is integrated, I will vote for the reform
".
“
But I tell the Prime Minister: our amendment cannot be watered down.
“At the
JDD
, the Prime Minister affirms that those who started working between the ages of 20 and 21 will be able to retire at 63, and not at 64. Élisabeth Borne thus ensures “
