New French PM opens door to rolling back Emmanuel Macron’s pensions reform

France’s Prime Minister François Bayrou has offered to “renegotiate” Emmanuel Macron’s unpopular move to raise workers’ retirement age from 62 to 64, in a bid to win round leftists as he attempts to pass a budget in a hung parliament.

“We can explore a new path for [pensions] reform with no sacred cows or taboos — not even the retirement age of 64 years — provided it meets the set requirement.”
