“This approach is really not responsible. In a long interview granted to Ouest-France, during a trip to Angers to present the reform for the “young childcare guarantee”, this Thursday, June 1, Élisabeth Borne, the Prime Minister, said denounced the methods of the Liot group (Liberties, Independents, Overseas and Territories). This group, led by Charles de Courson and Bertrand Pancher, had tabled a bill in the hope of repealing the retirement age at 64.
According to her, “some deputies want to take the light and stop at nothing”. And certainly not in front of the obstruction. “What happened this Wednesday in committee is shocking. We left with 89 amendments tabled. This technique […], we have known it throughout the examination of the pension bill in the Assembly. And again this Wednesday in committee. “It’s anything but playing the game of democracy,” she continues. This way of doing things is lying to the French. This is unnecessarily throwing oil on the fire. »
Then asked about his reframing by Emmanuel Macron, and the rumors of departure, Élisabeth Borne recalls that the president “assured him of his confidence. […] If he had had something to say to me, he would have said it one-on-one. Some obviously must have misunderstood.”
Despite the difficulties and tensions that have reigned in France since her appointment to Matignon, she is therefore not thinking of resigning. “I have a roadmap and I’m sticking to it. She thus reaffirms that she has “many projects to carry out […], on major issues of health, education, green industry, justice”.
