EMMANUEL MACRON AT MANEUVER

FOR THE GREAT NIGHT OF MONDAY

"It is a president of lightning who often referee at the last moment", according to a close of the president.

Prime Minister Edouard Philippe woke up for a week to curb the impatience of the French after the close of the great debate. Place tonight to the concrete answers of President Emmanuel Macron.

Emmanuel Macron will unveil, this Monday evening at 8 pm on television, "priority action projects and the first concrete measures" to respond to the great national debate and the crisis of "yellow vests", announced the Elysee, this Sunday evening.

On Wednesday, he will "make new announcements", "explain and detail" his major projects at a press conference at the Elysee. His first in France since the beginning of his quinquennium in May 2017, he had draped in an attitude of Olympian. Objective of this speech: to provoke a "blast" effect by speaking to the greatest number.

"It's a president of lightning who often referee at the last moment," said a close.

But the suspense that the president maintains for weeks on this intervention must meet the expectations of the French.

"In-depth changes will be launched" to mark "a new act", predict some. Others even promise "surprises" for Monday to revive a quinquennium in decline.

But had not Edouard Philippe slowed the ardor of some? The output of the great debate "will last a long time" and "will not be done in three announcements," he also warned late March. Before also warning that all the expectations, sometimes contradictory, French could not be satisfied. "Adding 66 million individual votes does not build a common project," he said in Saint-Brieuc.

The tracks are not lacking to come out of the top of this unprecedented impasse of power.

Some in advance seem excluded, such as the return of the ISF whose removal has earned him to be called "president of the rich." A track that evokes others makes dream some: that of the creation of a universal allowance ...

According to the Ifop survey, 88% of French want to reindex the small pensions on inflation, 87% want to force doctors to settle in medical deserts, 82% want a general decline in income tax and 80% remove the television fee.

It will have included measures to improve their purchasing power, for taxation and pensions. Because we are not mistaken: the trigger of the crisis of "yellow vests" is above all the increase of gasoline at the pump. "A Jacquerie of the 21st century" ?
