The same day that the Constitutional Council announced that there will be 12 candidates in the competition for the presidential election, the current president, and now a candidate, held his first campaign act. His first rally for re-election was in Poissy, west of Paris.
The French president and candidate for the Presidency was this Monday, March 7, in Poissy, in the Yvelines, where he held a first electoral campaign act with around 250 of his supporters.
Macron explored several of his proposals, but did not face any sensitive questions or sharp criticism.
He proposed launching “three major projects: one for schools, another for health, another for our institutions”, and “four pacts: European, productive, generational and republican”.
He also outlined several measures that would allow more purchasing power for citizens, one of the biggest concerns of the French in this election.
Purchasing power and gas prices
If re-elected, Macron wants to abolish the tax levied on viewers to finance public broadcasting and television, among others.
“We will abolish the remaining taxes, the television canon is part of them, they are about 137 euros on average. It is consistent with the abolition of the tax on housing,” said the head of state.
The freeze on gas tariffs, which have been increasing since the beginning of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, will have to be prolonged. “Regarding gas in particular, we will go beyond June, we have to go until the end of the year,” Macron said.
He added that the coming winter in Europe will be “even tougher” if Russia decides to cut gas supplies to the European Union in retaliation for European sanctions. The president has already expressed his willingness to no longer depend on Russian gas to run French factories.
To combat food insecurity, Macron said he was in favor of creating food vouchers.
At the level of education, the head of state proposes to generalize 30 minutes of sports at school and allow high school students to study computer code in the same way as they do with a foreign language.
