By announcing that he had reached an agreement in favor of retirees, the head of the LR deputies aimed at the Macron camp, which in turn wants to obtain the maintenance of exemptions from employer contributions.
Good news for retirees? Laurent Wauquiez does not intend to deprive himself of announcing it loud and clear, this Monday evening, when he enters the set of “8 p.m.” on TF1.

A concession of 800 million euros maximum for the government, which planned to postpone the indexation of all pensions to inflation by six months. « I consider it a normal effort »insists Laurent Wauquiez.
