Clémence Guetté stated that the National Rally had sought to prevent a vote on the increase of the minimum wage to 1,700 euros net per month, proposed during the parliamentary niche of La France insoumise at the National Assembly. She indicated that the group had also presented texts concerning the Overseas Territories, AESH (accompanied students with disabilities), victims of sexual violence, and young people from ASE (Child Welfare Services). According to her, the RN opposed the increase in the minimum wage and wanted to avoid having to publicly take this position. Guetté accused its elected officials of slowing down the debates and causing incidents throughout the day. The session ended at midnight, she wrote, and the deputies were unable to vote on the measure. #SMIC #PouvoirDAchat #Politique (translated)

TotalEnergies News & Fact Checking responded to Mr. Ruffin that its global results had allowed it to cap pump prices for its French customers, with an amount already estimated at 500 million euros, and to fund investments contributing to the country's supply security. The company also cited value sharing with its employees, notably through profit-sharing, bonuses, assistance for fuel purchases, and dividends paid to its 80% French employee shareholders. It mentioned the return of funds to shareholders, including over 700,000 French individuals, as well as the company's debt reduction. TotalEnergies indicated that it would pay corporate tax in France for the 2026 fiscal year and that it paid its taxes where it made its profits.

Its contribution to French public finances is said to have exceeded 2 billion euros in 2025, in taxes, duties, and social contributions. #Economie #TotalEnergies #Impots (translated)

Savionova wrote that she watched David Lisnard on CNEWS and found him composed, convincing, and clear in his responses. She believed that he presented his proposals without beating around the bush and clarified several points of his program. According to her account, Lisnard wanted to fundamentally reform the State so that it focuses more on its sovereign missions, particularly security, justice, and law. On juvenile violence, he proposed lowering the age of criminal responsibility to 16 and reducing the minority excuse from 50% to 20%. He also defended the principle of "the vandal pays," she reported. Savionova stated that Lisnard wanted to reduce contributions on earned income by lowering the CSG rate from 9.2% to 6.6%, in order to increase the net income of workers without raising labor costs for companies. Regarding pensions, he advocated for postponing the retirement age, adding a capitalized pension to the existing system, and freezing pensions above 2,200 euros. Regarding immigration, Lisnard mentioned, according to her, about 500,000 legal arrivals per year and wanted to bring that number down to 80,000, prioritizing work-related immigration that is likely to integrate. He also believed that the debate on immigration should be able to take place without being associated with racist connotations, she wrote. Finally, Savionova reported that Lisnard considered it a priority to produce artificial intelligence and robotics, rather than just limiting themselves to regulating them. He also wanted young people to learn to master these technologies and develop their critical thinking. She described his approach as pragmatic and measured, and believed that his intervention could encourage people to discover his project and join it. #DavidLisnard #PolitiqueFrançaise #Réforme (translated)

Guillaume Herblot wrote that 25 years ago, in high school, students did not question the religion or skin color of their classmates and considered themselves primarily as individuals and citizens. He believed that this indifference was part of the normal functioning of society, rather than a lack of clarity. He attributed the evolution he described to a segment of the left, which, according to him, after losing the support of the working classes, sought new electorates by focusing on identities rather than on socio-economic interests. He cited among voters' concerns security, purchasing power, downward social mobility, and the feeling that the rules of the game were being unilaterally changed. In his view, certain political currents had transformed individuals into electoral groups and instrumentalized anti-racist and anti-discrimination discourses for this purpose. Herblot also stated that this approach had not fostered emancipation or republican integration and mentioned, in certain neighborhoods, educational failure, unemployment, and delinquency. He associated this process with Aristotle's analyses of the division of the city into factions and Thucydides on stasis, or internal civil war. He believed that polarization fueled mistrust and resentment, making the debate on integration and secularism more difficult. He concluded that this evolution was the result of a political choice rather than a inevitability. #citoyenneté #intégration #république (translated)
