Today, I walked from République to Nation alongside the public service agents. Teachers, caregivers, firefighters, local agents: those who keep the country running every day were on strike, called by all the trade union organizations. Their message is clear. Public services are not a cost; they are our common wealth. For years, they have been asked to do more with less and less. Prices are skyrocketing, energy and fuel costs are exploding, and the salary index remains frozen. This summer, the fires showed everyone what it costs to abandon our public services. And while we tighten the belt of agents, we loosen it for big corporations. This is not fate; it's a political choice. In Saint-Denis–Pierrefitte, we know the value of our schools, our daycare centers, our health centers, and our municipal teams. In our working-class neighborhoods, when public service declines, it is always the same people who pay the price. So I say it again: money exists. The question is, for whom. We want more positions, better salaries, and the means to meet the needs of the population. Thank you to all those who mobilized today, agents, users, high school students. This is just the beginning. (translated)
