This is the big day.
The last day, especially, of the examination of the pension reform in the National Assembly.
MPs have until midnight to discuss the amendments before the text goes to the Senate.
The clock is ticking, therefore, and the prospect of a debate around the famous article 7 - which pushes back the legal age of departure to 64 - is moving away.
Yesterday evening, again, parliamentarians had voted only two of the 20 articles of this bill.
Faced with this, the different Nupes groups obviously did not adopt the same strategy.
“
Incomprehensible withdrawal of the PCF amendments
”, thus squeaked Jean-Luc Mélenchon on Twitter
.
“Why rush to Article 7?
The rest of the law doesn't count?
Can't wait to get beat up?"
The PS group, he claims to have withdrawn 90% of his amendments.
Invited this morning of February 17 on France 2, Olivier Faure lukewarmly defended the solidity of Nupes: “
As in any political family, there are differences which may exist and which are not insurmountable.
“Before adding:”
The real agreement that we have is that we are firmly opposed to this reform.
»
Opposition to the government's text, continues the first secretary of the PS,
"we have been expressing it for 10
days"
.
And if this opposition could be expressed "
through a vote
", "
it would be better
", he admits.
Invited on CNews, the Insoumis Manuel Bompard, he assumes:
“We have tabled amendments, they are important, they are not useless amendments.
Article 7, 8, 9 must be examined and for that, the government must give up its timetable and give us more time for debate in the National Assembly.
And to conclude “
There is no reason today to withdraw our amendments.
