The leader of the Insoumis deputies Mathilde Panot announced on Wednesday the intention of her group to table a motion of censure against the government, after the President of the Assembly announced that she would block the examination Thursday of a proposal to repeal retirement at age 64. “Obviously we will table a motion of censure because it is unacceptable that we can make such a coup without there being a reaction behind it”, declared Mathilde Panot in front of journalists, without specifying when it would be tabled. , nor with which other group it could be. “We’ll discuss it with them,” she added.

In the aftermath of a sharp drop in mobilization in the street, the protest against the pension reform is heading towards its epilogue in Parliament. But the President of the National Assembly announced that she was going to block the examination of the measure to repeal the 64-year-old, scheduled for Thursday in the hemicycle. “On these amendments to restore Article 1, I am very clear: they will be declared inadmissible by myself during the day”, assured Yaël Braun-Pivet on BFMTV.

On the left, La France insoumise cried foul. For Manuel Bompard, “they are afraid of losing, so they want to prevent deputies from voting”. “Against the French, they are ready for anything,” said François Ruffin.

On the far right also, the reactions are indignant. “The President of the National Assembly is trampling on the Constitution which guarantees Parliament the right to pass laws”, Marine Le Pen got carried away on Twitter. “There has never been a vote, the power always has it prevented, it’s outrageous,” said MP Sébastien Chenu. The Rassemblement national could also vote for this motion. The partners of the LFI within the Nupes have not yet spoken.
