Dr. Laetitia Muadi called for not influencing labor inspectors in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. She introduced Finance Minister LikundeR as a loyal executor of President Félix Tshisekedi's directives. Muadi stated that no category of civil servants was currently receiving their full salary scale, specifically citing university professors, teachers, doctors, and nurses. According to her, the government was gradually adjusting salaries based on the state budget and treasury. She denied that the president ordered, during the 94th Cabinet meeting, the payment of 100% of their salary scale to labor inspectors and controllers. She indicated that presidential instructions were instead focused on accelerating the reform of the General Labor Inspection (IGT), the monthly payment of salaries, and the administrative and financial autonomy of the agency. Muadi stated that these measures had been implemented: a new IGT had been established, salaries had been integrated into the liquidation state for the fourth quarter, and operating and installation credits were included in the 2027 finance bill. She specified that inspectors and controllers were receiving 30% of their salary scale and were demanding 100%. According to her, the government had opted to increase remuneration in phases, as it had done for other categories of civil servants, depending on budgetary means. #RDC #Travail #Syndicats (translated)

Chicago Boy wrote that he dined the night before with a right-wing advisor to Lecornu, whom he described as profoundly disillusioned by the exercise of Macronist power. According to this interlocutor's assessment, the failure of Macronism was attributed to the political origins of its leaders, most of whom came from the left, particularly the Socialist Party, the Rocardian movement, or the CFDT, and were influenced by its values. Chicago Boy believed that this legacy led Macronist leaders to only half-heartedly pursue right-wing policies. He cited the replacement of the ISF with an IFI, which he deemed almost as counterproductive, the numerous exceptions to the pension reform that would have limited savings before it was suspended, as well as the promise to eliminate 100,000 public sector jobs, whereas their number had actually increased by 200,000. He concluded that one should never vote for the soft center. #Macronisme #PolitiqueFrançaise #GaucheDroite (translated)

Bally Bagayoko explained that his group abstained during the vote on a wish presented by the opposition elected officials from the Socialist, Environmentalists, and Citizens group at the municipal council. The text focused on the protection of girls and women against excision and female genital mutilation, as well as the adoption of a comprehensive law against sexist and sexual violence (SSV). He said that his group supported the fight against mutilations and reminded that nearly 500 patients received follow-up each year in the municipality. He also praised the work of the Women's House, Delafontaine Hospital, and various associations, and asked the State to strengthen the resources allocated for prevention and medical follow-up. According to Bally Bagayoko, the abstention concerned the request to quickly adopt the law on SSV. He indicated that the bill had been significantly amended in committee at the National Assembly the week of the municipal council, and its content remained uncertain. His group had asked to remove references to this law from the wish in order to be able to vote in favor of the text on the fight against excision, but the opposition had refused, he wrote. He believed that this refusal had hindered the pursuit of an agreement and denounced a political instrumentalization of the issue. The group ultimately abstained in order not to block the wish, which was adopted, while not supporting all of its content, he noted. #Excision #DroitsDesFemmes #LutteContreLesViolences (translated)
