“Yesterday I saw my father cry”

Samuel Chabré, François' son, who also works in the third place of Martinière, decided to publicize the situation.

“Yesterday, I saw my father crying in the kitchen with a piece of paper in his hand. » It is with these words that Samuel Chabré begins a text that he published on social networks a few days ago. A testimony in which he shares the dismay of his ancestor, whom he saw “screaming and crying with rage and humiliation” when he learned of the pension to which he could claim. A post which quickly sparked reactions. To the point of encouraging the young man to create a website (recourspaysan.fr) to discuss more widely around this type of situation in the agricultural world (linked to disability, retirement rate, etc.) and publicize them. “We are quite convinced that, collectively, we can make things happen,” he says, specifying that he has contacted a Parisian lawyer to possibly follow up on certain files. A collective is also being structured.

“Luckily we are among the people who have enough housing, but otherwise, what would my father do? », asks Samuel Chabré. “We are going to fight, it’s a question of survival. »

For the professional, this specific case actually illustrates much deeper issues in society. “You die with your mouth open when you work. And it affects all levels of society. Where is the State? It should protect all these people who work hard, who give up their health for their job and who are often the worst paid. The ones we throw in the scrapyard. We just want decent income and we don't want to beg. We are currently talking about an austerity budget, it's a shame. Nothing is written that this is the society we want. »
