Macron's government barely survived a bad political bet. What happens next could be uglier.
If the pension law itself is unloved, the method of passing it—using the 49.3 procedure to bypass a vote—has generated almost universal disgust, and risks turning a large but peaceful protest movement into something more disruptive. Macron’s allies have tried, unconvincingly, to defend this choice, arguing that opponents made debate impossible, that the bill was a compromise, and that it passed the French Senate, so, that’s good enough, right? On Monday, after the 49.
They’re looking at you like someone who has betrayed them, with a mix of anger and disgust.”Nor is it hard to grasp the giddy opportunism on the far-right, where Marine Le Pen has successfully transcended her family’s fascist history and her own anti-immigrant rhetoric. She has lost to Macron twice, but her share of the vote jumped by 8 percent between 2017 and 2022 as more and more disillusioned workers joined her coalition of hardcore reactionaries.
