National Rally to Unveil Alternative Budget Amid Criticism of Government's Plan

The far-right party deems the government's 2025 budget proposal unacceptable, citing increased taxes and cuts in public services.

The National Rally (RN) plans to present a 'counter-budget' in response to the government's 2025 finance bill, which they find unacceptable.
Key objections from RN include proposed taxes on electricity, air transport, and gas, alongside reduced reimbursements for medical consultations.
RN leaders, including Thomas Ménagé and Laurent Jacobelli, argue that the government's budget focuses too heavily on tax increases rather than spending cuts.
Marine Le Pen has accused the government of misleading the public about the budget's focus, citing a report that claims 70% of the effort is on tax hikes.
RN's alternative budget aims to challenge the government's approach and is set to be unveiled during a press conference next Wednesday.
