Why is the government letting the left win?

Description

The left has passed a series of buzzy amendments over the past week, including 30 billion euros worth of new taxes on the rich, as well as a variety of initiatives that the New Popular Front campaigned on. Deputies on the right and the center aren’t even showing up to vote against the measures.




So will France be getting a redistributive budget that taxes and spends (which the right calls confiscatory) any time soon?




Don’t count on it.
