But if the summer agreement is not yet finalized, it is already the target of strong opposition criticism, which denounced earlier in the afternoon the time chosen by the majority to pass all the measures.
“You are so attached to this country, I am talking about Belgium of course, that you have decided to keep the worst of traditions, the great agreement where we stack the sensitive files and packages which must all succeed at the same time”, Ironized François de Smet (challenge). “You are going to pack the taxation of capital gains that must punish those who invest, the reform of health care that will punish doctors and caregivers, the merger of police areas that will punish Brussels residents, the purchase of F-35s which will increase our technological dependence on the United States and you even succeed in adding climate or even climate visits or even visits Domiciliaries.
In the ranks of the PTB, Raoul Hedebouw shares this reading. “This government, like all governments in recent years, takes advantage of the holidays to quickly pass a set of anti -social measures”, explains the president of the radical leftist party. “It is deeply anti -democratic. You take advantage of the fact that people are not there, to be able to pass it up. You take advantage that this parliament will close …”
“The greatest socio-economic reform of this century”
Critics that have not shaken the Prime Minister. “For the moment the government is working hard for the parliamentary holidays, at first reading, several important reforms are decided. If we succeed, this will give the greatest socio-economic reform of this century in this country.”
If he has not delivered any details on the ongoing discussions, the ex-Bourgmestre attacked the opposition attacks, which he deems exaggerated. “On the one hand, we hear” tax tax tax “, on the other” neoliberal cold political “. The two cannot be true at the same time. And even none of the two is true, because those who have read the agreement of government more or less know what to expect. And as always you are the Parliament which can discuss in the long run of these measures when the government comes with these bills.”
“A fireworks of brutal and unjust measures”
On the side of the PS, we are concerned about a socially difficult summer. “This year, the heart will not be celebrated for many fellow citizens of our country”, estimated Pierre-Yves Dermagne, PS group leader. “This year, which will be on the program of the festivities of July 21 […]it is a fireworks of brutal and unjust measures. A parade of attacks on our social model. And you, Prime Minister, Bart 1er, as a king of social breakage. “
