If he does that; wouldn’t that be a form of nationalism......?........hmmm.

when we look at the details of the proposals, it's a scam. The French will go crazy!

I think the real minimum the french want is his resignation

So raising the minimum wage was always an option? Why he didn't do it before? Because he hates workers and only fear will push him.

Sticky plaster over a gunshot wound.

too late too silent

Progressives in the US need to take a lesson.

Another autocratic decision by Macron . A Napoleon indeed!

Macron announces minimum wage increases to combat social unrest. Akin to setting the basement on fire in order to put out a fire in the attic. The longterm results will inevitably be higher unemployment, less opportunity, worse low skilled & youth prospects, lower family incomes.

He needs €40bn to pay for the ‘Grand Paris’ project & the Olympics. Whatever way it’s dressed up the French have under invested under recent socialist administrations & the people are fed up. You get those moaning about UK Underground, but it beats Paris hands-down!

I guess it's too much to ask to shift the green tax burden to the corps and rich where it belongs.

It will only postpone riots which will come back with multiplied strength Socialists never learn, unfortunately. Socialism

Apparently Macron is a 'man of his word'. Merde:

That's quite an incomplete version of what is actually going to happen. Some people will be eligible for an extra €100 (gross, before tax), but not all minimum-wage workers. And this increase will be paid for by cutting on public services like social security.

Low-minded European leaders EmmanuelMacron and T. May, have created that chaos in the financial markets, that the economy in the Europa Union is sinking slowly

See, it did work, all the demonstrations!
