Pour E. Philippe, il n’existe "aucune hypothèse où la France s’en sort, sans travailler plus"

In an interview with Les Échos, Édouard Philippe, a potential candidate for the 2027 presidential election, advocates a strict approach to pensions and public finances, while rejecting any image of a brutal austerity policy. The former Prime Minister believes that the pension system is a central issue for the next five years and considers an extension of working life inevitable to preserve the financing of the social model. Without setting a specific retirement age, he deems the promises of a return to 60 or 62 years of age made by some political opponents unrealistic. On the budgetary front, he argues for a gradual return to balanced public accounts, with a deficit target limited to 2% by 2032, and proposes stricter oversight of Social Security finances. He also mentions the development of funded pension schemes as a supplement to the current system. 00:00 Édouard Philippe: “France won’t get out of this without working more” — do you agree? 01:36 Abel Boyi: "The French want to work, contrary to popular belief." 05:26 Fatima Aït Bounoua: "In his wording, he omits pronouns: it's a strategy that avoids specifying who should make the effort.
