Put an end to “the mismanagement in the administrative mille-feuille” and consequently, “the political level of the greater region”? This is what Jean-Philippe Tanguy, member of the National Rally, would like, who detailed on Thursday the savings options recommended by the far-right party to fill the public deficit. According to him, “we need to get the departments to collaborate with each other, that will be more than enough”. At the microphone of RMChe recalled his proposal to create “a single mandate” for these two levels, “the territorial advisor”.
Jean-Philippe Tanguy also proposed to “significantly reduce” the number of intermunicipalities, “too big or too expensive, with a lot of support function expenses”. “We removed the country guard to put communications directors everywhere in France,” he lamented. According to the far-right elected official, “the mayors of small towns no longer know who to talk to”.
The RN wants to tackle the “great taboos of Bercy”
The Somme MP also cited a marker of the far-right party, “the national priority for non-contributory social assistance”, such as the RSA, which according to him would save “at least 16 billion euros”. The deputy president of the RN group in the National Assembly thus wants to tackle the “great taboos of Bercy”.
For his part, the RN deputy Sébastien Chenu defended on RTL, the temporary taxation of excess profits, for profits not relating to “business strategy” but linked to “governmental decisions”, such as “large distribution” during the Covid-19 period. He also advocated taxing “stock buybacks.” We must “encourage companies to reinvest their profits and not simply to circulate money between them,” he argued.
