Above all, have a modest triumph and never declare victory. This was the angle of the Socialist Party (PS) the day after the vote on the Social Security financing invoice (PLFSS), adopted narrowly on Tuesday, December 9. “To speak of victory would mean recognition of public opinion. It’s a little early to appreciate it. Everything is done and undone very quickly in the current context”warns the MP (PS) for Indre-et-Loire Laurent Baumel, nonetheless ” satisfied “ that his get together has “managed to dedicate a compromise in a vote ».
However, the epilogue is not written: the PLFSS, which continues its parliamentary shuttle, will be definitively submitted to the deputies on Tuesday, December 16. With a final vote that promises to be close, the socialists have one fear: that the hand of deputies from the Ecologists and Les Républicains parties, whose abstentions and votes in favor allowed the adoption of the text on Tuesday, will shake again.
In the coming days, the PS will therefore focus on “consolidate the vote” of the Greens so as to keep away from that some “change your mind”particularly after a weekend spent in a constituency, the place they may very well be confronted with activists or dissatisfied voters, as a few of them lean extra in the direction of the posture of La France insoumise (LFI).
