Macrons pension reforms pass French senate vote
France’s senate has voted to approve a deeply unpopular reform to pensions, hours after demonstrators took to the streets again to oppose the cornerstone policy of Emmanuel Macron’s second presidential term.
Senators passed the reforms by 195 votes to 112, bringing the package another step closer to becoming law. A committee will hammer out a final draft, to be submitted to the senate and national assembly for a final vote.
“An important step was taken this evening with a broad vote on the pension reform text in the Senate,” the French prime minister, Elisabeth Borne, said after the vote, adding that she believed the government had a parliamentary majority to get the reforms passed into law.
Should Macron’s government fail to assemble the necessary majority, however, Borne could deploy a rarely used and highly controversial constitutional tool, known as article 49/3, to push the legislation through without a vote.
Unions, which have fiercely opposed the measures, still hoped on Saturday to force Macron to back down, though the day’s protests against the reform were far smaller than some previous ones.
“This is the final stretch,” Marylise Leon, deputy leader of the CFDT union, told the broadcaster Franceinfo on Saturday. “The endgame is now.”
Tensions flared in the evening, with Paris police saying they had made 32 arrests after some protesters threw objects at security forces, with rubbish bins burned and windows broken.
This week, Macron twice turned down urgent calls by unions to meet with him in a last-ditch attempt to get him to change his mind.
The snub made unions “very angry”, said Philippe Martinez, boss of the hard-left CGT union.
“When there are millions of people in the streets, when there are strikes and all we get from the other side is silence, people wonder: What more do we need to do to be heard?” he said, calling for a referendum on the pensions reform.

The interior ministry said 368,000 people showed up nationwide for protests – less than half of the 800,000 to one million that police had predicted.
n Paris, 48,000 people took part in rallies, compared with police forecasts of about 100,000.
Unions, who put the attendance figure at a million, had hoped turnout would be higher on a Saturday, when most people did not have to take time off work to attend. On 11 February, also a Saturday, 963,000 people demonstrated, according to police.
On the last big strike and protest day on Tuesday, turnout was just under 1.3 million people according to police, and more than three million according to unions.
The reform’s headline measure is raising the minimum retirement age to 64, up from 62, seen by many as unfair to people who started working young.

The reforms would also increase the number of years people have to make contributions in order to receive a full pension.
Protesters say that women, especially mothers, are also at a disadvantage under the new reforms. “If I’d known this was coming, I wouldn’t have stopped working to look after my kids when they were small,” said Sophie Merle, a 50-year-old childcare provider in the southern city of Marseille.
Several sectors in the French economy have been targeted by union calls for indefinite strikes, including rail and air transport, power stations, natural gas terminals and rubbish collection.
On Saturday in Paris, urban transit was little affected, except for some suburban train lines.
Uncollected rubbish has begun to accumulate in some of the capital’s neighbourhoods, and airlines cancelled about 20% of flights scheduled at French airports.
An opinion poll published by broadcaster BFMTV on Saturday found 63% of French people approved of the protests against the reform, and 54% were also in favour of the strikes and blockages in some sectors.
