Pensions: Green MPs tackle LFI's strategy

Green deputies denounced Friday to Agence France-Presse a "strategic failure of LFI" on the pension reform, the party of Jean-Luc Mélenchon having slowed down the examination in the Assembly of the key article on the extension of the legal retirement age to 64 years. "The Nupes works when we work together," insisted the president of the environmental group Cyrielle Chatelain during an interview with AFP. "Each of the Nupes parties is essential, but for it to work, we must also respect the whole".

"We had the advantage, we should have done everything to go to article 7. We should have accelerated at that time," said Sandrine Rousseau, who is the leader of the environmental group on this text. “We will leave the debate to the Senate and the joint committee, but above all we will leave the baby on the street. On March 7, there really must be a major general strike, ”pleaded the MP for Paris.

LFI leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon called on deputies on Thursday not to "rush" to the key article of the reform, scolding the communist allies. “Incomprehensible withdrawal of CPF amendments. Why rush to Article 7? The rest of the law doesn't count? Eager to get beaten? “, had criticized Jean-Luc Mélenchon on the social network Twitter, showing in broad daylight the strategic differences within the Nupes.
