JORDAN BARDELLA & ERIC CIOTTI PRONOUNCE RETIREMENT AT 60 AND THE REPEAL OF EMMANUEL MACRON’S PENSION’ REFORM (2023)
The President of the National Rally, Jordan Bardella advocates leaving at 60 for long careers, but does not comment on postponing the current reform to 64
Asked about pension reform by Hedwige Chevrillon, Jordan Bardella replied simply: “I will not increase the retirement age. I think that the reform implemented is socially unfair and it is very costly economically, because in France we have two thirds of workers over 60 unemployed. Postponing the age further means increasing state social spending.” He adds that he prefers a focus on long careers, highlighting “an imperative of social justice. Millions of French people have very difficult jobs who would like to retire without having a broken back. However, today life expectancy in good health is stagnating, so I hope that those who started working before the age of 20 can leave at 60 with 40 annuities,” he said. And above all he specifies that “there is progression beyond that, and that is normal, but I want to give priority to long careers”

Jordan Bardella being young himself, at twenty-eight years old (entered politics since the age of 16 alongside his mentor Marine Le Pen, a lawyer by profession) “I want to allow young people to be pushed very early on the labor market and a retirement system which should allow young people to enter the labor market very early,” he further specifies.
Asked again about the departure at 64 years old implemented by the current pension reform, Jordan Bardella affirms that “de facto, we are repealing the reform in its current system”, without answering the question precisely. “We had set the progressiveness at 62 years in Marine le Pen's presidential program which took into account 300 billion euros less debt. We are aiming for 62 years, but I want the France of work and the working classes to be able to leave earlier,” he concludes, not wanting to make promises he cannot keep.
