“We must fight the inequalities at the root, fight for emancipation and against the assignment,” said Emmanuel Macron, Thursday, March 17, during the press conference detailing his program for a possible second mandate. In particular, he criticized the compensation schemes of posterior inequalities, because “the most egalitarian policy is the one that prevents inequalities”.

Concerning the major themes of education and health, Emmanuel Macron advocates “a change of method”, beyond massive investments in these two sectors. “The subject is not whether we will make a revaluation of all teachers, in whole france, whatever the conditions or not, it is rather to know how to change the method, collectively, putting all Stakeholders around the table to make things happen collectively, “he explains.

In case of election to a second term, Emmanuel Macron says to want a “broad consultation” in national education, involving teachers, administrative staff, elected officials, parents, associations, students . With several objectives: “Definition of new missions” for teachers – evokes the goal of no longer having professors not replaced in case of absence – a more individualized follow-up of students, a family-school rapprochement …

Concertation, also, in the reform of the health system. According to him, you have to “look at reality in front: despite the Ségur, there is today a sense crisis for many health professionals”. Among its proposals, a generalization of medical assistants and employees in areas less equipped; Careful care staff for all facilitating approaches such as prescription renewals; or a fourth year of boarding school for general practitioners in rural areas.

On pensions, Emmanuel Macron confirms his ambition to gradually shift the statutory age at age 65, with a consideration of long careers and hardship. He also wants to combat seniors unemployment and evokes a proposal to “remunerate volunteers close to retirement or retirement wishing to share the society with their experience.”

To prevent the complexity of aid devices to the most precarious, Emmanuel Macron offers a system of “solidarity at the source” on the model of the supply of taxes at the source. A device that would, in his opinion, fight against non-recourse (people who have the right to help but does not demand it) and fight against social benefits fraud.

The candidate also wants to renovate the protection of childhood. Among the measures mentioned, a “parental control of default screens”. “We too often put in the hands of our children with the screens without having trained them or protected enough,” said Emmanuel Macron, before insisting on the protection against harassment: “At school, in college, high school (… ), it is an essential policy. “The second priority is, according to the Head of State, inclusiveness and students with disabilities. “We will increase until thirty-five hours the working time of the students’ accompanying”, the AESH, says Emmanuel Macron.

In terms of asylum, Emmanuel Macron considers that “the multiplication of procedures and remedies” between the refusal of an application and the pronunciation of an obligation to leave the territory “creates the inefficiency of our system ” In its possible second term, “the refusal of asylum will require the obligation to leave French territory”. In this same orientation, the candidate said to wish “a reduction, or even a deletion” of the visas granted to countries who refuse to welcome their relevant nationals of the right of asylum in France: “a logical and normal policy”, according to him.
