The French Prime Minister Sebastien Leconnu presented on Friday a wealth tax among the proposals designed to obtain the support left to the 2026 budget, which the socialists immediately called “insufficient” without closing the door to new negotiations.
In conversations with the leaders of the socialist party, Leconnu proposed a tax on financial wealth to break a dead end around the budget next year. This tax does not apply to the professional activities of the entrepreneurs, two sources near the Prime Minister told Reuters.
At the beginning of this day, Leconnu excluded the possibility of using the constitutional powers provided for in article 49.3 to approve the budget in Parliament without voting, a measure that the distant socialists and the national meeting (RN) have grown, but said it was not enough.
“He made us know a proposal (budget) which was very insufficient and, in many ways, alarming essentially – although he clarified that by undertaking to no longer use article 49.3, the project could be modified by Parliament,” said the leader of the socialist party Olivier Faure, after the meeting, adding that he is now kept to know if Leconnu will go further.
The income of French titles has increased slightly after the faur lines.
Parliament is divided into three blocks, none of which has a majority, and Leconnu depends on the rival parties to approve legislation and for its survival as prime minister.
Last month, Leconnu became the fifth Prime Minister of President Emmanuel Macron in two years after Parliament rejected his predecessor, François Bayrou, due to his plans for a reduction in the budget of 44 billion euros next year.
Leconnu’s decision to exclude the use of the clause of article 49.3 of the Constitution is seen as a way to return the power to Parliament between the budget negotiations.
The clause, which allows the first ministers to approve the invoices without vote, has been criticized as non -democratic, but Leconnu’s predecessors often used it to approve complex legislation.
