Gabriel Attal spoke this Saturday, during the city’s greeting ceremony of Orlienas (Rhône), the main axes of its general policy declaration expected at the end of the month, with the objective of “keeping our French identity”. The Prime Minister is traveling in the Rhône. In the afternoon, he will debate with around 150 French people and local elected officials at Saint-Laurent-d’Agny. “I do not plan to prepare [la déclaration de politique générale, attendue le 30 janvier] by staying in my office with my advisors. I like the field, moving around,” said Gabriel Attal during a speech lasting about a quarter of an hour.
“We are going through very big challenges” and “one of the issues we have to overcome […] it’s how to keep our identity, our French identity, our values, our great strengths, in a world that is changing and moving,” he continued. “My first priority will be to continue to support working France. There are many French people who meet their responsibilities every day, who work, sometimes in difficult conditions, who keep the country running. And who have […] sometimes the feeling of giving a lot without receiving much,” said the head of government, faithful to his mantra in favor of the middle classes.
Public services and security
“My second priority is to strengthen our public services, which are the French people’s money,” said Gabriel Attal, first citing “education”, “life insurance of the Republic” for which he intends “ continue to [s]’invest with a key word: high standards’. He then mentioned “health”: “We lack doctors, we are training more today, they will arrive in a few years” and “in the meantime, we must find solutions at the local level”, “by giving more responsibilities to others than doctors.
“And then security. We will continue to strengthen our police officers, our gendarmes” but “more broadly, it is the question of authority in our country, rights and duties”, continued the head of government. Last issue cited by the Prime Minister: “The ecological transition”. “I will never agree to let myself be locked into a debate where you have some, on one side, who explain to you that if we want to make the ecological transition, we have to brutalize everyone […]. And on the other side, others who explain to you that we can do nothing. »
