In France, the debate over pension reform is intensifying as two political factions prepare to challenge the existing law.

The Rassemblement National (RN) and La France Insoumise (LFI) are both set to propose bills aimed at repealing the controversial reform that raised the retirement age to 64. The RN's proposal will be discussed on October 31, while LFI's will follow on November 28. However, the path to repeal is fraught with challenges, as the Socialist Party (PS) has declared it will not support the RN's initiative, citing a commitment to not align with the far-right.

Instead, the PS plans to address the issue through amendments to the Social Security budget and during LFI's parliamentary session.

The political landscape is further complicated by the lack of RN representation in the Senate, making it difficult for their proposal to advance.

As the debate unfolds, the future of France's pension system remains uncertain, with various parties vying to influence the outcome.
