The president of the PS group in the Assembly Valérie Rabault claims to have refused Matignon

The socialist deputy did not want, among other things, to have to bring retirement to 65 “a pointless right-wing marker”, she told BFMTV.

BFM TV INFO – The Élysée would have offered Matignon to Valérie Rabault who claims to have refused, according to our information. The socialist deputy did not want, among other things, to have to bring retirement to 65 “a useless right-wing marker”, and said she was “faithful to her convictions”.

“The retirement of 65 years is not necessary and it was a marker to have a cursor on the right. I am faithful to my convictions even if I understood that the line that we carry, that of social democracy, n is more in the majority in the country”, advanced the president of the socialist group in the National Assembly to BFMTV.

“The situation on the left is extremely complex, I don’t know what it will lead to”, she also confided before announcing: “I will represent myself in my constituency”.

The MP for Tarn-et-Garonne is therefore standing for re-election in the 1st constituency. She will campaign in her own name “for now”.

Valérie Rabault makes this statement, so negotiations between her party and LFI for an agreement on the left for the legislative elections are still in progress and are slipping. The number of constituencies granted to the socialists is one of the big points of tension.
