“We cannot give in every day under the pretext of being afraid of censorship,” adds the elected Macronist, after the concessions made to the left by the Prime Minister, who said he was renouncing the freezing of retirement pensions and social minimums in 2026.

“At the beginning it was the abandonment of 49.3, then the suspension of the pension reform, now it is the thawing of social minimums…”, lists EPR deputy Jean-René Cazeneuve, Friday October 31 on franceinfo. “Socialists will have to stop asking for more and more”declares the elected official while Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu announced on Friday that the government would be “favorable” the abandonment of the freezing of retirement pensions and social minimums in 2026, measures which appear in the draft Social Security budget.
“I am quite worried about how this budget may end when I see the number of concessions requested by the Socialist Party”continues the Macronist MP. “I would like to reiterate our goal of reducing our deficit.”
“How do we achieve a deficit of less than 5%, which is vital?”

“We cannot give in every day under the pretext of being afraid of censorship”adds Jean-René Cazeneuve. “If my memory doesn’t fail me, the socialists did not win the last elections. We need them to adopt this budget, of course, but we cannot adopt just any budget either.”
The National Assembly on Friday rejected the emblematic Zucman tax and its derivatives, to the great dismay of the left, to which Sébastien Lecornu tried to give assurances by immediately renouncing the freezing of retirement pensions and social minimums.
