« Je n'ai jamais de dîner politique », a-t-il insisté, en accusant les journalistes de se faire « l'expression d'accusations qui sont des accusations destinées à nuire », ajoutant travailler « de 7 heures et demie du matin jusqu'à minuit, tous les jours ».

Overview

  • The CFDT formally withdrew from four months of pension reform talks, rejecting further negotiation over work arduousness and financing disputes.
  • François Bayrou has vowed to decide unilaterally on unresolved issues and fold pension amendments into the 2026 Social Security budget draft by mid-July.
  • Socialist deputies have submitted a censure motion against Bayrou for bypassing a standalone pension bill, but it lacks backing and is set to be defeated.
  • The Rassemblement National has refused to support the Socialist motion, cementing Bayrou’s tenuous hold on government during upcoming budget debates.
  • Heightened threats of a censure vote and stalled reforms have reignited speculation of dissolving the National Assembly once the July 8 dissolution window reopens.
